Some interesting talk around international law and cyber crime is being picked up by all the media stemming from a opinion in the news. I find the authors original paper far more interesting: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1083889 Pages 8-16 have the typical blend of information warfare although the author calls it Information Operations (IO) as a subsection of Computer Information Operations then offers some legal digression into how to alleviate the problems around IO. Still makes for a good read. What might be interesting is how states may extend sovereignty it into cyberspace, namely psyops and electronic embargoes and other polices enforcement by military forces are on the horizon. How do states adjust to espionage if the spies never leave the host country? The questions posed are fairly vast and the paper covers the DDoS of Estonia that may merit a reply from Estonia CERT or Gadi E. The paper certainly demonstrates that International cyberlaw (not the trademark version) is not even in its infancy were the lotus principal is king (what international law does not prohibit, it permits.)
