Abstract

The article aims to reveal the relationship between jurisdiction (more specifically, its territorial scope/range) and the conflicts linked to posting abusive or illegal statements on the internet. The main hypothesis of the article is that jurisdiction and decisions rendered by the Judiciary, when directed to remove posts on the internet, have their scope/range limited to the territory of the State in which they are rendered. This means that people who connect to the internet from other States cannot be directly impacted by the decision.
