What two approaches have states used to cover cybercrimes?

In May 2006, representatives of the Group of Eight (G8) industrialized nations, including France, Japan, and the U.S., met in Paris and agreed to boost cooperation to fight cybercrime. Participants there confirmed their support of the France-based Council of Europe’s efforts to finalize a Convention on Cybercrime, which will be the first international treaty to deal with the different forms of criminal activity in cyberspace. The treaty would require countries to approve and enforce laws regarding interception of data, interference with computer systems, fraud, and forgery via the Internet. It also requires them to provide national law enforcement with the authority to carry out computer searches and seizures of computer data. “Everyone realizes that we are at a point where business is in transition, technology is in transition, and there is a legal transition as well,” says Randy Picker, a law professor at the University of Chicago. “The reality is, the legal clock is a lot slower than the business or technology clock.”
