'... an excellent piece of work which I'm sure will influence future thinking about the internet, its uses and abuses.' Raymond Wacks, Emeritus Professor of Law and Legal Theory, University of Hong Kong 'In the debate about public and private use of the internet, Internet Privacy Rights ... is a refreshing and accessible solution. If we accept that the internet can be both liberating and generate inequality and oppression, then we expose the balance that needs to be struck and the need for global perspective. The book looks at many of the different ways that our privacy is infringed, from government surveillance to hacking. Such issues have the potential to create global tension, but for Bernal the solution is a not impossible privacy-friendly future.' Felicity Gerry, The Times '... this is a well-written and insightful account of the current state of privacy online as well as a manifesto for reform. As an overview of the issues in internet privacy law, it is both accessible to the general reader and consistently interesting to the specialist, and can be confidently recommended to both.' T. J. McIntyre, Irish Jurist
