Abstract:
THE CHEMIST IN CYBERSPACE - AVOIDING THE PITFALLS OF THE
DIGITAL WORLD. J. Keith Harmon, ECLIPS, 1224 Kinnear Rd,
Columbus, OH 43212.
Without a doubt, the Internet is a tool that has
revolutionized the way that people communicate, disseminate,
and locate information. We can send and receive messages,
documents, and images to and from virtually anyone in the
world. In essence, the Internet magnifies what we can do
with information. Yet it does more than magnify the positive
aspects of manipulating information, it also magnifies the
problems. This presentation will identify some of the
problems and will suggest ways to avoid the pitfalls that
they create, including: Copyright, Freedom of Expression,
Public Access to Electronic Records, Defamation, Crime and
Security in Cyberspace, Jurisdiction of the Internet, and
Privacy and Anonymity
