Which of the following is true with respect to the application of tort law to the internet?
◦ The principle of defamation will apply to the internet just as it does to any other form of communication, but the problems of jurisdiction and whom to sue will create significant obstacles.
◦ Companies that sell their products over the internet cannot be held liable under the laws of negligence if those products cause injury.
◦ Since common law provides adequate protection, no new statutes need to be passed to provide additional protection.
◦ Because the internet provides direct and inexpensive access to a massive audience, torts such as deceit, negligent misstatement, and defamation as well as normal civil and criminal remedies do not apply.
◦ It is unlikely that courts will be willing to expand existing tort law to encompass new technologies.
