»Self-help« is considered the opposite of legal enforcement under a rule of law. While fear of violence might justify a careful approach in face-to-face transactions, the internet allows invisible and retaliation-free enforcement without personal contact. The legal system is, however, ill-prepared for a world in which the touch of a button can restrict access and usability of products. Covering a broad field ranging from traditional self-enforcement prohibitions to trade secret rules and computer crime, Michael Beurskens establishes a workable uniform framework for future challenges.
