The term “Internet Age” describes the remarkable state of nearly instantaneous worldwide voice, data, and video communications available today. With the dial of a phone or the click of a mouse, we can exchange information across distances and international borders in a manner never imagined by previous generations.

3) local or long distance International
These modern communications, however, also raise a number of legal issues including regulation, pricing, import/export, licensing, privacy, encryption, eCommerce, jurisdiction, taxation, intellectual property, merger / acquisitions, and antitrust issues.
Integral to the Internet Age are the laws that guide, direct, balance and respond to these issues, and thus are that key part of each telecom product or service. It is important to understand these laws when communicating in this new environment. I wrote Telecommunications Law in the Internet Age book to effectively address these concerns.
