I think technological progress has given a new dimension to the various crimes which traverse through various territories thus creating the issue of jurisdiction. Identity theft, misuse of credit cards, hacking, leaking of critical information and frauds are some of the issues which are being faced by the Indian cyber consumer

As the techenology changes the new dimesion were introduce in the cyber crime & computer crime. Both the type of crime has its own way to operate & consolidate in form of crime. There are so many fields in which such types of crime were introduceses. The indian legislatue are needed to reform the various law & it also required to introduce new law for preventing the crimes. I further say that the Legislative body as well as Implimenting ( Police ) body is required arrenge training, Seminar etc were arrange.

I could say that internet technology facilitates the gathering of personal data. But this also brings a possibility of a threat to the privacy of a cyber consumer or netizens. With the boom in online service provider companies in India, misusing of the personal data of a cyber consumer has become a major menace, there is no specific legislation to protect the personal data of a person though to a little extent protection may be given under the Copyright Act, 1957.
With US and EU having strict policies relating to privacy and protection of personal data, it becomes very important for India, considering the inflow of foreign investments and other business opportunities, to have specific data protection and privacy laws. The Information Technology Act protects privacy rights only from government action and it’s unclear if such protection can be extended to private actions as well. |
