Abstract |
This thesis investigates acts of retaliation and deterrence conducted through internet that are specific to post-Soviet Union countries. In modern world, acts of retaliation partly transcended from real to cyber world, reaching its highest levels. On one hand, this is influenced by the lack of legislative statutes that encompass discussed field, on the other, rapid advancement of digital technology has triggered various new methods of retributive justice. Nowadays, retaliation using the internet is a well spread phenomenon. Active social players realized that implicit benefits of cyberspace, eventually, equipped them with high anonymity, fast proliferation of the information, and deficiency of the legislative acts related to cybercrime. Therefore collaboration of abovementioned three factors provides interested parties with an ultimate weapon for retaliation.
