When a crime scene is in cyberspace, forget the yellow tape. Boundaries, along with evidence and procedure, need to be re-envisioned. Or, as Daniel E. Geer Jr. puts it: & Digital law is and must be counterintuitive because our intuitions about the physical world can be misleading when applied to the digital realm. Mr. Geers essay on the & physics of digital law is a fitting start to Cybercrime: Digital Cops in a Networked Environment, a collection of writings assembled by the Information Society Project, at Yale Law School. * The Chronicle of Higher Education *
