I. Research Mission The goal of this study is to identify the trends in the legal literature and key U.S. case law with respect to jurisdiction for claims arising out of Internet activity. Questions about jurisdiction arise in almost every Internet case and the legal rules and tests remain in flux in the United States and internationally. This report seeks to offer an objective and comprehensive survey of the literature and of key U.S. court decisions on Internet jurisdiction.

Jurisdiction law is comprised of three main legal questions.1 First, courts must consider questions of personal jurisdiction or whether a court has power over the parties involved in a lawsuit such that it may hear and determine the case. This analysis typically requires the court to consider what type of contacts or relationship the parties have had with the forum state.2 Second, courts must address choice of law and consider what law applies to the dispute. In Internet cases involving parties from different territorial jurisdictions, courts must determine whether to apply the laws of their territory or of the foreign territory. Finally, there is the issue of enforcement of judgments, the jurisdiction to enforce. Courts must consider both whether their judgments will require the cooperation of another territorial jurisdiction and whether they are able or willing to apply a judgment set forth by a court in another territorial jurisdiction.

A. Scope of the Project This study sets forth a survey of and trends in the legal and policy literature and in U.S. jurisprudence related to jurisdictional issues that arise in connection with Internet activities. The study’s purpose is to provide an objective and thorough resource that can assist scholars and policy makers in their search for materials addressing internet jurisdiction. The study does not take any position on the body of law concerning internet jurisdiction, on the merits of any arguments presented in the scholarship or on how jurisdictional issues should be addressed. The purpose of the study is to report on the information available and the observable trends in the literature and case law.

B. Research Methodology The research was divided in two phases: one for the literature and one for the US case law. Fordham CLIP developed parallel methodologies for each phase to identify the relevant materials for analysis.

1. Literature For the literature portion of this report, Fordham CLIP collected and analyzed the academic scholarship related to jurisdiction in claims arising from activity taking place on the Internet. The Fordham CLIP team put together a list of relevant search terms and applied those terms to multiple legal databases. The articles identified in the searches were reviewed to determine whether they focused, in whole or in

part, on issues of Internet jurisdiction or only related tangentially to Internet jurisdiction. All relevant results were then categorized to identify trends in the scholarship.

i. Search Approach Fordham CLIP selected multiple search terms to use across several academic reference databases. Key words were used in combination with the search term “Internet” across each database to maximize the chances of locating works that addressed, in whole or in part, Internet jurisdiction. While some false positives appeared in the results, this approach ensured that all sufficiently relevant publications were likely to be identified. This approach also reduces the risk that a relevant work would be omitted in the final report. This approach also assures that the results can be reproduced using the search terms and databases described and can be updated as needed in the future.

In addition, a date filter was selected. Searches were limited to literature published subsequent to January 1, 2002 and prior to October 15, 2012 in order to have meaningful results capturing the current trends. The Fordham CLIP team also used the date filter to return a manageable number of results from the research databases that catalog articles going back much further in time.

ii. Selection of Search Terms In order to cast the broadest possible net of relevant terms, Fordham CLIP selected search terms that would necessarily have to be included in any substantial discussion of Internet jurisdiction. Search terms were selected in order to capture research related to personal jurisdiction, choice of law, the challenges of international cooperation, distinctions among the treatment of different subject matter claims and the implications of geolocation technologies. The terms selected were variations on terms related to these topics, namely “personal jurisdiction,” “choice of law,” “conflict of law,” “international private law,” “mutual legal assistance treaty,” “cross border jurisdiction,” and “conflicting judgment,” each when used in connection with “Internet.”

The research approach and the use of the search terms are best visualized as a matrix. See Table 1 below. Searches were conducted using the combination of terms reflected by each of the boxes in the matrix (e.g., “personal jurisdiction” was searched in combination with “Internet,” on the vertical axis of the matrix).

Table 1

During the course of the research, some of the searches resulted in overwhelming volumes of false positives within possibly relevant literature. For these cases, additional search query criteria were introduced to more accurately pinpoint the number of publications that feature relevant discussions of jurisdiction on the Internet and to filter out those that merely mention the issue in passing. To do this, we required that the term “Internet” appear in the text a minimum of ten times.

iii. Databases Fordham CLIP used a comprehensive set of academic databases to assure an accurate canvassing of legal scholarship. These were:

 Index to Legal Periodicals – This is an index that covers the 500 most significant legal periodicals. The index only includes titles and does not allow full‐text search.

 Lexis – This database offers full‐text search for virtually every American legal periodical, as well as numerous foreign and international journals.

 WestLaw – This database offers full‐text search for virtually every American legal periodical.

 Index to Foreign Legal Periodicals – This is an index of foreign (i.e. non‐U.S.) legal periodicals published in English. Like the Index to Periodicals, this index includes only publication titles and does not offer full‐text search.

iv. Review of Search Results Each CLIP team member was assigned one or more specific databases to research according to the methodology described above. The initial searches resulted in a total of 19,930 articles. Fordham CLIP members reviewed initial search results and filtered out duplicate results. False positives were identified by reading article abstracts, introductory sections, and portions of text where the search terms were highly concentrated. Where a text featured the necessary search criteria but was primarily focused on another topic without offering particular insight or analysis of Internet jurisdiction, it was excluded as not relevant to the report. Texts in which references to Internet jurisdiction were found only in footnotes or in passing were also excluded for having low relevance. Publications of practice materials or notes from conferences were also excluded. Case note articles that merely summarized a judicial opinion without adding substantial commentary or analysis were similarly excluded. Articles appearing as relevant were designated for later review and categorization.

After this filtering, 318 articles were identified as relevant texts for analysis. Once all citations were identified, Fordham CLIP members reviewed the texts to identify themes. Team members met to discuss common themes and trends in scholarship observed during this round of reviews. General thematic categories were outlined and the articles were categorized accordingly. Many articles reflected more than one theme and were therefore placed in multiple categories. After this categorization was complete, a member of the Fordham CLIP team reexamined the articles of a particular theme to verify each article’s fit within the group and further draw out parallel ideas and concepts within a given cluster. This provided the basis for the analyses relating to the academic literature contained in this report.

2. Key U.S. Cases For the U.S. case law portion of this report, Fordham CLIP collected and analyzed the recent court decisions related to jurisdiction in claims arising from activity taking place on the Internet. The Fordham CLIP team created a list of relevant search terms, described below, and applied those terms within the Westlaw legal database. The most recent cases identified in the searches were reviewed to determine whether they focused, in whole or in part, on issues of Internet jurisdiction or only related tangentially to Internet jurisdiction. The relevant results were then reviewed to identify seminal case law relied upon within the recent U.S. court decisions. This approach assures that the results can be reproduced using the search terms and Westlaw database and can be updated as needed in the future. Further, the methodology developed enables an objective selection of key decisions for analysis.

i. Search Approach Fordham CLIP first identified seminal cases from the “jurisdiction” portion of a leading Internet law case book.3 These cases were reviewed to identify multiple search terms for use within the Westlaw reference database. Key words were selected to be used in combination with the search terms “online,” “Internet” and “website,” respectively, within the Westlaw database to maximize the chance of locating court decisions that addressed, in whole or in part, Internet jurisdiction. This search was conducted for

both federal and state case law within the Westlaw database.4 In order to minimize the number of false positives within the results, the following additional search query criteria were applied to more accurately identify the court decisions that focused on jurisdiction on the Internet and to filter out those that merely mention the issue in passing: (i) The term “online” appeared in the text a minimum number of three times, or (ii) the term “Internet” appeared in the text a minimum number of three times, or (iii) the term “website” appeared in the text a minimum number of five times.

In addition, to keep the results relevant and manageable, a date filter was applied. First, searches were limited to court decisions rendered on or subsequent to January 1, 2003, and on or prior to December 31, 2012. This selection was designed to provide meaningful results that would capture the current trends.

ii. Selection of Search Terms In order to cast the broadest possible net of relevant terms, Fordham CLIP selected search terms that would necessarily be included in any substantial discussion of Internet jurisdiction within a court decision. Search terms were chosen to capture case law related to each of the types of jurisdiction: personal jurisdiction, choice of law and the effects of Internet activity occurring within of a particular court’s territory. The terms selected were as follows: “minimum contacts,” “purposeful availment,” “effects test” and “choice of law.” As noted above, these were each used in connection with each of the additional filter terms: “online,” “Internet” or “website.” As discussed above, “online,” “Internet” and “website” had to appear the requisite number of times within a particular text in order to be included in the initial results dataset.

This initial research approach and the use of the search terms may be visualized as a matrix. See Table 2 below. Searches were conducted using the combination of terms reflected by each of the boxes in the matrix (e.g., “minimum contacts” on the vertical axis of the matrix was searched in combination with “website” appearing at least five times on the horizontal axis of the matrix, etc.).

iii. Review of Search Results The initial searches resulted in the following number of court decisions for each search category (see Table 3 below):

Table 3

Effects test 2096 694 2255

Choice of law 462 242 451

Because these searches resulted in a high number of false positives, as well as significantly large numbers of search results for each search category, Fordham CLIP narrowed the date range to court decisions rendered from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012 and introduced an additional search filter that eliminated all decisions without the term “jurisdiction” used at least five times by the court. These filters refined and improved the search results. The narrower date range assured that the results would still capture current trends, and the screen for use of the term “jurisdiction” targeted the most relevant cases.

This final research approach is reflected in the following matrix. See Table 4 below. Searches were conducted using the combination of terms reflected by each of the boxes in the matrix (e.g., “minimum contacts,” on the vertical axis of the matrix, was searched in combination with “jurisdiction” appearing at least five times and “website” appearing at least five times on the horizontal axis of the matrix).

The initial searches resulted in the following numbers of court decisions in each search category (see Table 5 below):

While some false positives appeared in the final search results, the approach ensured that all sufficiently relevant and recent court decisions were likely to be identified. False positives were identified by reading the case abstracts, headnotes, and portions of the court decisions where the search terms were highly concentrated. Where a decision featured the necessary search terms but was primarily focused on another topic without offering particular insight or analysis of Internet jurisdiction, it was excluded as not relevant to the report. Moreover, search results were excluded where they consisted of a magistrate’s report and recommendation that had not yet been adopted by court order.

After eliminating the false positives, the 10 most recent court decisions in each of the 12 search categories were selected for analysis and were consolidated into one list of court decisions by eliminating duplicate cases which appeared in multiple search categories. A total of 50 non‐duplicate relevant cases remained that dealt directly with jurisdictional issues arising from Internet activity during the two‐year date range.

From those 50 cases, Fordham CLIP identified the cited case law used by the courts in those 50 cases to reach their jurisdictional conclusions with respect to activity occurring on the Internet. Fordham CLIP then compiled a list of those cases cited within the 50 court decisions. After this list of “reliance cases” was compiled, decisions that were only relied upon by one court within the fifty‐case dataset were eliminated as insufficiently significant. For example, from the reliance list, ALS Scan, Inc. v. Digital Serv. Consultants, Inc.5 was identified as cited 10 times. If the District of Massachusetts relied on ALS Scan in two different cases, ALS Scan was counted twice. If one District of Massachusetts case cited ALS Scan multiple times within one particular decision, it was only counted once. After eliminating the insignificant cases from the “reliance list,” the final results revealed 41 cases which were relied upon in more than one decision within the most recent 50‐cases.6

This “final list,” thus, reflects those cases that are key to contemporary courts’ decisions on Internet jurisdiction matters, and Fordham CLIP concluded that these 41 cases constitute the seminal case law within modern jurisprudence concerning the topic.

Fordham CLIP then reviewed and examined these 41 cases to identify common themes and trends within them. These conclusions and observations provide the basis for the analysis contained in this report.

II. Analysis of the Academic Literature The Fordham CLIP research team identified 318 articles addressing Internet jurisdiction between 2002 and 2012. This is a significant number of articles reflecting that, as society has become more reliant on Internet technologies with disputes more frequently involving parties from different states and countries, the body of literature addressing the new jurisdictional issues raised by Internet disputes has grown.

Although some of the scholarship focuses exclusively on either personal jurisdiction or choice of law issues, most of the articles address all three classes of jurisdiction law in the context of broader themes. The majority of the scholarship demonstrates that the different categories of legal analysis typically overlap with and influence one another. Much of the literature suggests that courts and policy makers recognize how one issue, such as personal jurisdiction, impacts the others like enforcement and proposes solutions and tests that address all three categories of the law. While courts typically recognize the jurisdictional issues in the three distinct ways, the legal literature more frequently discusses all three collectively.

Within the academic literature, Fordham CLIP identified a sizeable number of clusters that show notable trends. Article clusters, for example, discuss major cases from the United States and abroad. Large clusters of the literature also consider each of personal jurisdiction problems, choice of law issues, general solutions to jurisdictional issues and specific subject matter areas (i.e. e‐commerce, speech and defamation law, and intellectual property law.) Another large group, however, focuses on the full scope of jurisdiction law and presents varying arguments, solutions or legal tests that can impact all three categories of jurisdictional analysis. There are also smaller trends comprised of clusters with fewer articles that are quite varied and unique. These smaller clusters range from topics such as federalism, data havens, to state‐ and country‐specific scholarship.

Set forth below is a description of each trend with the respective bibliographies referenced in the footnotes. The trends emerged from arguments advanced by the articles, solutions presented or a focus on common issues.

A. Case‐Focused Articles Fordham CLIP identified approximately 60 articles that examine in‐depth the holdings of and legal standards arising from a set of Internet jurisdiction cases. The vast majority of this scholarship addresses either significant United States personal jurisdiction cases or landmark international jurisdiction cases.7 The articles focused on the U.S. cases primarily discuss how personal jurisdiction is

7 The rest of this scholarship concentrates on less‐prominent cases. See Jesse Anderson, Toys "R" Us, the Third Circuit, and A Standard for Jurisdictional Discovery Involving Internet Activities, 9 B.U. J. SCI. & TECH. L. 471 (2003); Laura S. Ferster, Griffis v. Luban: A Red Herring in the High Seas of Personal Jurisdiction, 29 WM. MITCHELL L. REV. 343

analyzed in U.S. courts. The articles focused on the international cases examine broadly the three areas of jurisdiction law.

1. U.S. Personal Jurisdiction Cases The majority of the articles that examine U.S. case law focus on Calder v. Jones and Zippo Manufacturing Co. v. Zippo Dot Com, Inc.. This subset of articles is specifically focused on how U.S. courts have determined personal jurisdiction in Internet cases. These articles summarize and explain the commonly used legal tests and provide critiques of and changes to the current methodologies.

i. Calder v. Jones8 Nine of the case‐centric articles analyze the “effects test” for establishing personal jurisdiction articulated by the United States Supreme Court in Calder v. Jones.9 In Calder, actress Shirley Jones brought an action in a California court against the National Enquirer’s Iain Calder and John South for an allegedly libelous article they wrote and edited in Florida.10 The article was published in the National Enquirer and distributed throughout California and the United States.11 In deciding to uphold California’s personal jurisdiction over Calder and South, the Supreme Court concluded that “[t]he fact that the actions causing the effects in California were performed outside the State [should] not prevent the State from asserting jurisdiction over a cause of action arising out of those effects.”12 The Court accordingly held that defendants are subject to personal jurisdiction in a forum when they were

“primary participants in an alleged wrongdoing intentionally directed at a [forum] resident” and they knew their actions would injure the resident in the forum.13

Although some articles view Calder’s effects test favorably and encourage its use when determining personal jurisdiction in Internet cases,14 more believe the standard should be modified.15 These articles offer a variety of solutions to perceived problems with the test. For example, one author claims Calder’s “express aiming” or “purposefully directed” requirement “prevents the exercise of personal jurisdiction in cases where Internet‐based activities represent the modern functional equivalent of actual physical presence in a forum.”16 The author suggests discarding that element and finding personal jurisdiction when defendants “engag[e] in activity that will cause harm somewhere, no matter ‘where that where may be.’”17 On the other hand, another author argues that “courts should require a higher burden of jurisdictional proof in effects‐test cases, even at the risk of limiting court access for some plaintiffs.”18 This change, the author purports, would result in a more consistent application of the test and greater predictability for courts and defendants alike.19

ii. Zippo Manufacturing Co. v. Zippo Dot Com, Inc.20 Nearly 20 of the articles surveyed examine the utility of the “sliding scale” personal jurisdiction test set forth by the District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania in Zippo Manufacturing Co. v. Zippo Dot Com, Inc..21 This test is used by a majority of federal courts in Internet cases.22 Zippo involved a

trademark dispute between Zippo Manufacturing, the Pennsylvanian maker of Zippo lighters, and Zippo Dot Com, a California‐based Internet news service and owner of the “zippo.com” subscription news website.23 After being sued in federal court in Pennsylvania, Zippo Dot Com moved to dismiss the suit for lack of personal jurisdiction.24 Zippo Dot Com had approximately 3,000 paying subscribers in Pennsylvania and “agreements with seven Internet access providers in Pennsylvania to permit their subscribers to access [its] news service.”25 Its additional contacts with Pennsylvania, however, occurred “exclusively over the Internet.”26 The district court thus focused on whether it had specific, rather than general, personal jurisdiction over Zippo Dot Com.27

After reciting the requirements for exercising specific personal jurisdiction over a non‐resident and briefly reviewing the major personal jurisdiction case law,28 the district court concluded that “the likelihood that personal jurisdiction can be constitutionally exercised is directly proportionate to the

nature and quality of commercial activity that an entity conducts over the Internet.”29 The court described this proportionately as a “sliding scale”:

At one end of the spectrum are situations where a defendant clearly does business over the Internet. If the defendant enters into contracts with residents of a foreign territorial jurisdiction that involve the knowing and repeated transmission of computer files over the Internet, personal jurisdiction is proper. At the opposite end are situations where a defendant has simply posted information on an Internet Web site which is accessible to users in foreign territorial jurisdictions. A passive Web site that does little more than make information available to those who are interested in it is not grounds for the exercise personal jurisdiction. The middle ground is occupied by interactive Web sites where a user can exchange information with the host computer. In these cases, the exercise of personal jurisdiction is determined by examining the level of interactivity and commercial nature of the exchange of information that occurs on the Web site.30

Using this sliding scale, the district court found that Zippo Dot Com purposefully availed itself of the Pennsylvania forum by entering into electronic contracts with Pennsylvania residents.31 The exercise of personal jurisdiction was according to the court, therefore, proper.32

a. Articles Discussing Zippo and its Progeny Just over half of the articles discussing Zippo primarily examine the ways in which courts have applied the Zippo sliding scale test in subsequent cases.33 While a few of these articles focus on providing information for practitioners about Zippo and its progeny,34 or seek to explain why Zippo dominates

personal jurisdiction analysis in Internet cases,35 more attempt to clarify where and how Zippo should apply.36 The authors of these articles note that some courts apply the Zippo standard in general personal jurisdiction cases.37 Many of these authors argue that this is inappropriate and “inconsistent with the Supreme Court's general [personal] jurisdiction doctrine and under‐protective of due process rights in the general [personal] jurisdiction context.”38 Other authors believe Zippo has caused courts to lose sight of “the traditional principles used in personal jurisdiction analysis.”39 They view the Zippo sliding scale as a “useful tool” in personal jurisdiction analysis, not as a “replacement for the traditional and far‐reaching analysis required in personal jurisdiction determinations.”40

b. Articles Critical of Zippo A substantial number of the articles discussing Zippo are quite critical of its sliding scale test.41 Many of these scholars argue that Zippo changes a “core requirement” of personal jurisdiction analysis—

purposeful availment—for the worse by adding an additional step riddled with ambiguity.42 These authors find the distinctions made between passive and interactive websites unclear and not useful, particularly when a website falls somewhere between the two extremes.43 Other critiques include one author who argues that Zippo “undermine[s] the Calder ‘effects’ test”44 and another author who argues that the sliding scale test fails to put “ordinary citizen defendants on notice” that they may be subject to personal jurisdiction in a “far away forum.”45

Although many of the authors in this cluster of articles want courts to return to traditional “non‐ Internet” principles of personal jurisdiction,46 a few would have courts use a modified version of the Zippo sliding scale.47 For example, one author would “merge the Zippo sliding scale with a sliding scale of efforts to limit contact with the relevant [territorial] jurisdiction.”48 Another author would combine

2. International Cases Another cluster of articles examines two landmark international cases: Dow Jones & Co. Inc. v. Gutnick and Yahoo! Inc. v. La Ligue Contre le Racisime et L’Antisemitisme. While personal jurisdiction was a fundamental issue in each of these two cases, most of the scholarship focuses more broadly on all three jurisdictional issues and considers how personal jurisdiction, choice of law and enforcement issues are connected.

i. Dow Jones & Co. Inc. v. Gutnick50 Eleven articles focus on the High Court of Australia’s decision in Dow Jones & Co. Inc. v. Gutnick.51 In Gutnick, Australian businessman Joseph Gutnick brought a libel action in the Supreme Court of Victoria against Dow Jones & Co. Inc. (“Dow Jones”) for an article that appeared in the Barron’s Online section of its WSJ.com website.52 The offending article was uploaded to WSJ.com via Dow Jones’ servers in New Jersey and was accessible only to Dow Jones’ subscribers, approximately 300 of whom were located in Victoria, Australia.53 Dow Jones entered a conditional appearance and sought an order to set service aside or permanently stay further proceedings in the matter.54 The Supreme Court of Victoria dismissed the application, finding that the article was published in Victoria, that Victorian law applied and that Victoria was not a “clearly inappropriate forum” for trial of the proceeding.55 Dow Jones appealed all the way to the High Court of Australia, arguing that the article was published where it was uploaded in New Jersey, not where it was downloaded in Victoria.56 Although the High Court explicitly recognized

the “uniquely broad reach” of the Internet, it rejected Dow Jones’ argument and unanimously affirmed the judgment of the Victoria court.57

Almost all of the articles discussing Gutnick concentrate on its implications for jurisdictional law generally, particularly the potential for widespread liability for Internet publishers.58 Most of the articles in this group reflect on how the extension of personal jurisdiction implicates significant choice of law issues. A few are especially critical of Gutnick.59 For example, one author argues that the High Court’s ruling is “overbroad and not sufficiently considerate of international Internet policy considerations related to speech.”60 Another author similarly believes the Court should have inquired into the extent of Dow Jones contacts with Victoria, even though the author agrees that it was correct for the Court to exercise personal jurisdiction over Dow Jones.61 Other authors focus on the role of public policy in the decision,62 how subsequent cases and legislation have dealt with Internet defamation63 or ways U.S. companies can reduce their exposure to liability under foreign laws.64

rights organizations—la Ligue Contre le Racisme et l'Antisemitisme (“LICRA”) and l'Union des Etudiants Juifs de France (“UEJF”)—filed suit against Yahoo! and its French subsidiary, Yahoo! France, for allowing access in France to Nazi memorabilia sold on the company’s auction website.66 It is a crime in France to publicly display “any uniform, insignia, or emblem of any organization or person responsible for crimes against humanity.”67 The French court sided with LICRA and UEJF and ordered Yahoo! to take all available measures to block user access from France to the Nazi memorabilia68 and ordered a fine for each day the offending content remained accessible in France after a three‐month implementation period.69

Although Yahoo! initially objected to the French court’s orders, it did not appeal the French decision.70 Instead Yahoo! filed suit against LICRA and UEJF in the Northern District of California, seeking a declaratory judgment that the orders of the French court could not be enforced in the United States.71 The district court considered LICRA’s and UEJF’s contacts with California—a cease and desist letter, the use of the U.S. Marshalls Service to serve process, and a request to the French court that Yahoo! comply with French law—and determined that the organizations purposefully availed themselves of California law.72 The district court accordingly held that it had personal jurisdiction over LICRA and UEJF,73 found

that the suit was ripe for adjudication and concluded that “the First Amendment preclude[d] enforcement [of the French orders] within the United States.”74

The Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reversed the judgment on appeal, finding—at least initially— that the district court did not have personal jurisdiction over LICRA and UEJF.75 The appellate court however reached a somewhat different result upon rehearing the case en banc.76 In the Ninth Circuit’s final, per curiam ruling, a majority of eight judges determined that the district court had personal jurisdiction over LICRA and UEJF.77 Of that majority, however, only five believed the case was ripe for adjudication.78 A majority, however, of six judges dismissed the case, but for different reasons: three for lack of personal jurisdiction and three for lack of ripeness.79

The scholarship discussing the Yahoo! litigation is primarily concerned with the impact these judgments will have on Internet entities and sovereign nations. More than half of the articles surveyed were written before the Ninth Circuit issued either of its rulings.80 These articles, in particular, advocate finding an international solution to the enforcement problem presented in Yahoo! through international regulation81 or through filtering technologies.82 A significant number of articles, alternatively, explicitly

support or condemn the French and American courts’ decisions to assert personal jurisdiction over Yahoo! and LICRA and UEJF, respectively.83 Others encourage the use of an effects test, like Calder’s, to determine whether personal jurisdiction exists,84 or offer more straightforward advice, such as “becom[ing] familiar with and attempt[ing] to conform to” the laws of countries in which one intends to do business.85

B. Personal Jurisdiction Independent of the cluster of articles that addressed personal jurisdiction in the context of a particular case, there is another important set of literature that focuses on personal jurisdiction more broadly. These articles analyze various tests that have been developed and applied by courts to respond to questions about personal jurisdiction in Internet disputes. Some of the articles in this grouping argue that the established tests are problematic and new tests should be developed. Others suggest that traditional legal tools can be used to determine personal jurisdiction in the Internet context.

1. Courts Should Create New Tests for Personal Jurisdiction Several articles argue that U.S. courts need to develop a new test to determine personal jurisdiction in cases arising out of online behavior.86 This group highlights both how the current precedents are inadequate and how the law should evolve to address personal jurisdiction issues.

The articles first articulate a number of reasons that the current tests are ineffective. They argue, for example, that applying the Zippo and Calder tests to one set of facts can lead to differing outcomes.87 Some authors also suggest that courts are often unclear about when to apply one test or another. Still others suggest that tests that rely on a targeting analysis often do not adequately address the harms that can arise from Internet transactions.88

The articles then offer a few different proposals for new tests that courts could apply. Several authors advocate for a reasonable foreseeability test, arguing that personal jurisdiction should be found when a defendant knows or should know that her action could cause harm within the forum state.89 A few others suggest that the Zippo and Calder tests should be combined requiring courts to consider both what type of activity the website engaged in and whether there was an expected effect within the forum state.90 Finally, one author takes a global perspective and argues that the personal jurisdictional standards in the U.S. should be adjusted to better address international litigants.91

2. Sufficient Legal Tools Exist for Analyzing Personal Jurisdiction Issues Another group of articles argues that the established legal rules and doctrines can adequately address the personal jurisdiction issues that arise in Internet disputes.92 The majority of these articles focuses on the United States and finds that the traditional due process analysis used by courts to assess personal jurisdiction can be applied adequately to online transactions and disputes. The literature suggests several reasons why traditional judicial rules and tests will work, including (1) the Internet is not unique since web actors still exist in physical space and conduct is still often targeted at people in specific geographic regions,93 (2) courts are familiar with the due process requirements and can adequately apply the tests to new situations, and (3) judicial application of the traditional rules allows the standards to evolve gradually over time as the technology changes.94 Some articles view the Zippo and Calder tests as examples of how courts appropriately applied traditional doctrines to the Internet,95 while others suggest that the Zippo and Calder tests should be abandoned and the basic minimum contacts and reasonableness standards should be applied without revision.96 Finally some of these articles suggest

that the basic due process analysis is a good starting point for new rules and that they can be adjusted and modified to address the changing technology.97

C. Choice of Law Some of the literature focuses specifically on the choice of law98 issues that arise in Internet disputes.99 A number of the articles in this cluster use conflicts regarding defamation and speech law to illustrate the choice of law dilemma.100 This group of articles generally examines how the choice of law analysis relates to the other jurisdictional issues, considers how choice of law issues impact the international community and suggests new ways to address choice of law problems.

A few articles explore how the choice of law analysis implicates and impacts questions about personal jurisdiction.101 These articles suggest that choice of law cannot be addressed in isolation, and that determinations about applicable law should also guide the resolution of personal jurisdiction questions. For example, one article asserts that courts need to consider whether the application of foreign law will create conflict with national constitutional law and, if such a conflict is likely, personal jurisdiction should

REV. 319 (2003). 98 “Choice of law” is the terminology used in the United States to denote the analysis a court undertakes to determine which state’s law it will apply to a dispute. In Europe this analysis is referred to “private international law.” The terms can be used interchangeably, but this report will use the United States terminology as the default. 99 Ayelet Ben‐Ezer & Ariel L.

potentially be withheld.102 Similarly, another article argues that courts should consider whether the choice of law issues result from conflicts about important national values before determining whether personal jurisdiction is proper.103

A subset of articles in this group suggests that courts should strive to create international harmony when addressing choice of law.104 These articles advocate that judges should consider the international impact of their decisions and recognize how compromise may be beneficial in the long run. In addition, a few of these articles suggest that either choice of law standards should be harmonized or an international arbitration scheme should be implemented.

Finally, several of the articles argue that choice of law issues are minimized by new legal strategies.105 Authors suggest that new filtering technology or online contracts can help to mitigate a large number of choice of law problems.

D. Proposed Approaches to Jurisdiction Issues A sizeable group of articles proposes various approaches that scholars think courts and policy makers should consider for the resolution of jurisdictional issues. Some articles suggest new tests, rules or governing bodies while others offer current regulation for application to new Internet jurisdictional problems. This literature often examines all three aspects of jurisdiction (i.e. personal jurisdiction, applicable law and enforcement), discusses how the issues impact one another and suggests new ways that their connectedness should be addressed. Below is a summary of the various arguments put forth in this literature.

1. New Legal Tools are Needed to Analyze Internet Jurisdiction A subset of these articles argues that the Internet presents new jurisdictional hurdles requiring new legal tests and tools.106 These authors emphasize the broader reach of communications over the Internet to larger audiences and wider geographic regions as compared to any previous technology.

They argue that this reach is so unique that it requires a rethinking of the traditional rules about personal jurisdiction, choice of law, and enforcement of judgments.

2. Geolocation Technologies are a Solution A sizeable group of articles advocates placing digital borders on the Internet via geolocation technologies that customize content and control access to websites according to a user’s location.107 The authors contend that these technologies make it “feasible to confine Internet regulation to a particular location”108 and create a “jurisdictionally‐differentiated regulatory regime.”109 Such a regime, they argue, would provide the best way to mitigate the extraterritorial effects of state‐specific laws and prevent the rise of universal personal jurisdiction over Internet actors.

Most of the authors focus their analysis on how governments and private actors, like Internet Service Providers (“ISPs”), can use geolocation technologies to establish their own digital territory or limit their liability.110 Their discussions range from suggestions for broad regulatory schemes,111 to industry‐

specific solutions,112 to aggressive technological strategies.113 Other authors concentrate on personal jurisdiction specifically and argue that courts should explicitly consider the use of geolocation technologies in reaching their decisions.114 One author explores in‐depth how geolocation technologies—and the jurisdictional certainty many believe they bring—can be easily circumvented.115

Another subset of these articles argues, however, that the advantages of geolocation technologies are not without cost. Many of these authors identify drawbacks to implementing these technologies.116 Chief among the drawbacks are the potential for abuse, particularly the ability to repress speech online,117 and the financial burden of investing in and maintaining the technologies.118 Some also believe geolocation technologies threaten to change the open‐nature of the Internet.119 Authors consider these concerns to be substantial. Nevertheless, none of the authors contend that these drawbacks outweigh the benefits of geolocation technologies.

3. Geographic Borders Should Not Apply in Cyberspace / Treat Cyberspace as Its Own Separate Place A group of articles examines whether the Internet should be treated as a separate space and remove all preconceived notions of jurisdiction tied to physical space when considering a new legal framework for Internet claims. Two articles in this group suggest that borders—whether they are created by geolocation technologies or by legal principles—should not exist on the Internet.120 One of these authors argues that the geographically‐oriented contacts and effects tests that dominate personal jurisdiction analysis should be replaced with a standard that captures a truer picture of Internet activity.121 The author proposes using a “cosmopolitan approach” that would “allow us to think of community not as a geographically determined territory circumscribed by fixed boundaries, but as ‘articulated moments in networks of social relations and understandings.’”122 In other words, the author’s framework would root personal jurisdiction in the development of an online community.123 The other author is more concerned with the negative effects of technological and legal borders on the Internet.124 This author submits that these borders are making the Internet less open and less global and recommends treating the Internet as a separate legal space.125 In this space, he argues, national laws would be replaced by a uniform code and a separate judiciary or arbitration system—at least for specific areas of law, such as defamation.126

The other two articles refute the use of physical space as an adequate metaphor for the Internet.127

4. Establish a Uniform, International Regulatory Scheme There is a small trend in the literature to suggest some type of uniform international regulatory scheme to address the personal jurisdiction and choice of law issues arising from international transactions over the Internet.128 Some of these articles advocate that international norms should be developed by the

international community regarding the assertion by any country of personal jurisdiction over foreign actors.129 Similarly, one author suggests that international norms about appropriate Internet content could help to resolve choice of law issues.130 Another set of articles proposes that the international community should harmonize its laws to avoid differences in jurisdictional jurisprudence.131 A final set focuses on treaties for the enforcement of judgments and argues that the U.S. should try to enter into international enforcement treaties even though such treaties typically require a minimal level of harmonization of substantive law.132

Other articles in this cluster consider the feasibility of an international solution to the jurisdictional problems raised by cross border Internet transactions.133 A few of these articles review past international solutions and find that, while many of them contain some good elements, most are largely unworkable in practice. A few authors suggest that some type of centralized legal forum or uniform

legal doctrine is needed.134 Others suggest that the international community should just agree on norms about resolving personal jurisdiction and choice of law issues.135

5. Hague Convention A small group of articles examines the Hague Conference’s attempt to harmonize international jurisdictional law through the proposed Convention on Jurisdiction and Foreign Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters.136 One group of authors believes that the proposed Hague Convention would be good for the international community.137 These authors argue that the agreement is beneficial because it uses a modified “targeting” test to determine personal jurisdiction over foreign actors and because its ratification would mean that the United States would no longer be an outsider with respect to jurisdictional treaties. Another group of authors argues that the Convention, as initially drafted, could be problematic.138 This group finds that the Convention is not good for consumers, that the enforcement provisions will be challenging for many nation states, and that the choice of forum provisions do not adequately take into account that parties contracting over the Internet may not have

equal bargaining power. Finally, one author suggests that the Convention may not be necessary because web actors now use contracts or technological fixes to get around legal jurisdictional hurdles.139

6. Parochialism Is Not Desirable A few authors fear that geographical borders on the Internet may promote parochial, inward looking legislation and jurisprudence.140 They believe a jurisdictionally‐differentiated Internet encourages individual states to apply the laws of their state over the laws of other states.141 This regime, the authors argue, is not beneficial in the long‐term because “a state that refuses to defer to foreign norms will likely find that its norms receive less deference from others in the future.”142 To avoid this outcome, the authors offer a variety of alternative solutions, including an international judicial system143 and a supranational alternative dispute resolution system.144

7. Online Dispute Resolution A small group of articles examines how online alternative dispute resolution systems may provide an effective legal forum for disputes arising on the Internet and affecting users in a number of territorial jurisdictions.145 One benefit of online dispute resolution articulated in some of the literature is that these new forums make it easier for international parties to communicate and they prevent arguments about which court should hear the case.146 A few articles also argue that these alternative forums could

lead to the development of a global cyberlaw.147 Several articles suggest that one context in which they could be especially helpful is multi‐jurisdictional business‐to‐consumer disputes.148

E. Subject Area Specific Articles A large portion of the literature examines how jurisdictional issues arise within specific areas of substantive law. These articles frequently highlight substantive law in the context of commercial activity on the Internet. The majority of these articles focused on e‐commerce, speech and defamation, intellectual property, cybercrime, gambling, Internet taxation and tort law.

1. E‐Commerce Thirty articles analyze jurisdiction issues associated with buying and selling goods and services via the Internet.149 These articles focus primarily on the following three areas: e‐commerce growth, e‐ contracting, and contractual forum selection clauses.

i. Growth of E‐Commerce Nearly half of the e‐commerce articles examine states’ rules about jurisdiction law and their potential impact on this “new realm of commerce.”150 The vast majority of these articles argue that jurisdictional norms should not hinder the growth of e‐commerce. They perceive a variety of problems with states’ jurisdictional frameworks. One author, for example, believes the “lack of uniformity” between states’ approaches makes it difficult for online businesses “to limit their legal liability.”151 In a similar vein, another author thinks “existing jurisdictional norms” do not provide sufficient “legal certainty” of possible liability.152

Some of the articles offer solutions to these problems that the articles identify as jeopardizing e‐ commerce. For example, one author would increase legal certainty by asserting personal jurisdiction

over an e‐commerce defendant only when the defendant purposefully availed itself of the forum, the plaintiff can show harm in the forum and the forum is reasonable.153 Conversely, another author sets forth an approach that “specifically inquires into an Internet actor's intentions and weighs the actions that an individual has taken either to submit to jurisdiction in a foreign land or to evade it.”154 A third author suggests a similar framework, but places the burden of proof on the seller.155

A few articles, however, find the perceived lack of uniformity and legal certainty less alarming. For example one author believes we should “protect the capacity of states to regulate themselves.”156 The author accordingly argues that global services should “conform to local rules when both the rules and their application to a particular transaction are consistent with international legal norms.”157 Similarly, additional authors maintain that traditional concepts of jurisdiction are “up to the task” of resolving e‐ commerce disputes.158

ii. Issues Pertaining to Electronic Contracting Nearly a dozen of the surveyed articles substantively discuss shrinkwrap, clickwrap and browsewrap agreements—so‐called “electronic contracts.”159 Some of these articles provide an overview of how

various states treat electronic contracts and whether such agreements are likely to be enforced.160 Others focus on the jurisdictional issues that arise alongside electronic contracts and offer ways in which businesses may limit their liability.161 A few articles take different perspectives. One author, for example, argues that electronic contracts are problematic because they are “not communicated, definitive or the product of negotiation.”162 The author sets forth a series of recommendations aimed at making electronic contracts more just.163 Another author, meanwhile, “explores the extent to which the contract doctrine applied to online transactions . . . might work to promote consumer trust in unknown vendors.”164 She suggests a variety of changes, including clearer, more conspicuous terms of service policies and more generous damage awards, designed to increase consumers’ faith in the online market.165

iii. The Validity of Forum Selection Clauses Six of the e‐commerce articles address the validity of forum selection clauses in electronic contracts.166 Most of these articles provide an overview of the law in the United States and, in one article, the European Union.167 They generally conclude that courts in the United States will uphold the terms of clickwrap agreements, including forum selection clauses “unless they are unreasonable, unconscionable

or contrary to the public policy of the forum.”168 The articles find, however, that the same courts are less likely to enforce the terms in browsewrap agreements.169 The rest of the articles consider forum selection clauses from the consumer’s point‐of‐view. One author argues that freedom of contract should be better balanced with consumer protection dictates.170 He advocates using consumer protection claims to prevent the enforcement of certain electronic contracts.171 Another author focuses on the issue of providing adequate notice of the forum selection clause to consumers.172 He argues that courts should adopt a two‐pronged “reasonably communicated” test that requires courts to consider the “physical characteristics” of the electronic contract and “extrinsic factors indicating the consumer's ability to become meaningfully informed of the forum‐selection clause.”173

2. Online Speech Over 30 articles address issues arising from speech on the Internet.174 The following three themes predominate this segment of articles: defamation, libel tourism and First Amendment.175

example, believes that American free speech principles would be best protected if courts throughout the world “assume jurisdiction over an out of forum libel defendant only when it is clear that the defendant had ‘targeted’ the communication to readers in the forum state.”181 Conversely, another author contends that such a targeting requirement unfairly “protects foreign libel defendants who have published on the Internet from being sued outside of their home states.”182 She suggests that courts follow the standard minimum contacts analysis established in International Shoe.183

ii. Libel Tourism Six of the surveyed articles examine issues related to international forum shopping by libel plaintiffs—a trend known as “libel tourism.”184 These articles attribute this phenomenon to “fundamental differences” in international libel laws, which make certain territorial jurisdictions more or less favorable to libel plaintiffs.185 The articles recognize that the global scale of the Internet provides significantly more avenues for libel tourism than was previously possible,186 and postulate that this may “be an obstacle to free speech” in cyberspace.187 Although the articles acknowledge “the need to protect the reputations of subjects unfairly harmed by broadly circulated articles,”188 and respect the right of sovereign nations to determine their own laws,189 they generally support the preservation of First Amendment protections for American publishers. For example, one author argues that the United States should enact “a federal statute granting personal jurisdiction over libel tourists” in certain circumstances to “prevent chilling effects upon protected speech.”190 Another author proposes an alternative approach. She believes members of the American media should “take action” through the

courts by pursuing anti‐suit injunctions, asserting forum non conveniens and contesting the enforceability of foreign judgments.191

iii. The First Amendment Six of the surveyed articles address in depth the impact of the First Amendment on choice of law and personal jurisdiction related to online speech.192 These articles focus on issues arising from “the collision of the First Amendment guarantee of free speech with the speech restrictions manifested in laws around the globe.”193 Many discuss this “collision” in tandem with the Yahoo! case.194 These articles in particular believe the enforcement of speech‐restrictive foreign judgments may hinder the proliferation of speech protected by the First Amendment in the United States.195 Others, however, disagree. One author, for example, argues that following Dow Jones v. Gutnick, the reach of the First Amendment remains and will continue to remain “hard to escape” due to the “enormous amount of content and infrastructure” the United States provides to the Internet world.196

3. Intellectual Property Nearly 30 articles focus on issues related to intellectual property and the Internet.197 All but one of these articles discuss intellectual property law generally or concentrate on problems specific to copyright and trademark law.198

Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act are ineffective and perhaps even unconstitutional.212 They contend that the preferred approach to exerting personal jurisdiction over cybersquatters would be a combination of existing jurisprudence, namely, the International Shoe minimum contacts standard and the Calder effects test.213 A few of the articles additionally suggest that a body other than the judiciary—such as Congress or the international community through a treaty—would be better suited for resolving cybersquatting claims.214

4. Cybercrime One group of articles discusses jurisdiction in the context of cybercrime and cyberterrorism.215 These articles recognize that the perpetrators of cybercrimes and cyberterrorism are frequently located outside of the territorial jurisdiction where the harm is inflicted and therefore prosecution of the wrong often faces jurisdictional hurdles.

Most of these articles suggest that the international community should work together to combat cyberterrorism by creating a model code or uniform system to address jurisdictional issues through a treaty or other international mechanism.216 Some articles propose that universal jurisdiction for cybercrimes could be implemented through an international treaty like the Council of Europe’s Convention on Cybercrime.217 Other articles suggest that international cooperation, like the cooperation used for prosecuting piracy, could solve the jurisdictional issues.218

A few articles do, however, argue that the legal framework currently in place already provides adequate tools for prosecuting cybercrimes committed by foreign parties.219 One of these articles suggests that the effects test articulated in Calder can be used effectively to find personal jurisdiction for cybercrimes.220 Still, other articles argued that the United States, as well as foreign nations, should each implement their own mechanisms to adjudicate cybercrime affecting victims in their territorial jurisdictions.221

5. Gambling There is a cluster of articles that examines the jurisdictional issues raised by online gambling sites.222 The majority of the articles address how to enforce domestic gambling legislation against offshore online gambling casinos. Most recognize that, while gambling is an area of law traditionally regulated by

states,223 the Internet has made it more difficult for states to enact and enforce anti‐gambling statutes.224 The articles describe that this enforcement challenge has often led to the expansion of personal jurisdiction225 and the movement of online gambling casinos offshore, where prosecution is more difficult under current gambling legislation.226

One subset of articles proposes a federal law as the solution to the enforcement problem. These articles first discuss how enforcing varying state laws against offshore sites is often challenging because it is difficult to find personal jurisdiction over the site owners in a specific state court. For example, one article addresses a specific Kentucky statute, and finds that the state cannot seize an Internet gambling website’s domain name due to lack of personal jurisdiction.227 Articles in this group suggest that Internet gambling should be legalized nationwide and strictly regulated.228 These articles argue that, if online gambling is legalized, the federal government will have the authority to regulate it under the Commerce Clause because Internet gambling would necessarily affect interstate commerce.229 The authors do note however that this solution could create a tension between state and federal governments.230

Another set of articles proposes alternative technological and legal solutions to allow states to enforce their statutes against offshore actors. One article suggests using geolocation technologies to pinpoint the location of people gambling from states that have made online gambling illegal.231 Another article suggests imposing a mandate on credit card companies to reject payments from people in certain states for partaking in online gambling.232 A third author argues that online gambling advertising, which can reach multiple jurisdictions, is part of the problem, and a ban on such advertising would help slow the

growth of the industry.233 Finally, another article proposes that Internet gambling regulation be administered by a new federal agency, the Federal Internet Gaming Agency (FIGA), which would police online gambling websites.234

6. Taxing Internet Sellers Five articles examine how to determine jurisdiction for the purposes of taxing Internet transactions.235 These articles recognize that states have a great interest in taxing Internet transactions, but also that uncertainty in the law of Internet jurisdiction makes it difficult for states to enforce the collections of taxes from these new revenue streams.236

A few articles propose new models for determining when a state may exercise jurisdiction over an Internet actor for purposes of taxation. For example, one article reasons that the physical presence test for taxing individuals cannot deal effectively with today's economy, and that there should be a new unified state standard for taxing.237 Another article suggests that the jurisdictional analysis should be divided into determining (1) when a state has power to impose its tax laws on transactions that have a relationship to economic actors within the state and (2) when a state has power to collect taxes related to those transactions.238 The author argues that technological advancements (like automatic collections) can be used to extend tax jurisdiction to out‐of‐state actors.239

Other articles focus on the constitutional issues surrounding an extension of tax jurisdiction. These articles focus on the Due Process Clause's minimum contacts analysis and the issue of whether states can tax Internet transactions under the Commerce Clause.240 One article suggests that, when creating

legislation on Internet taxation, Congress should require a de minimis presence under the Due Process Clause.241

In contrast, one article rejects the idea that a new test or model is needed for tax jurisdiction over Internet actors. It concludes that the current tax system is "robust and flexible" and can adequately deal with the new developments in tax jurisdiction over Internet transactions.242

7. Torts There is a small cluster of articles that discusses the jurisdictional issues arising from Internet tort cases.243 While the main focus of these articles is on how to reform tort law for Internet harms, they do generally agree that litigation relating to Internet torts is growing, and there is a need to address jurisdiction principles for the Internet in the context of tort liability.244 One subset of articles suggests that there is a need for a globalized regime for Internet jurisdiction because many Internet activities take place across physical and territorial borders.245 These articles advocate either using a blend of U.S. and European approaches to Internet jurisdiction,246 or developing a successful international convention.247

F. Other Significant Themes While much of the literature could be categorized within the major trends discussed previously, there were also clusters of articles that raised distinct and noteworthy themes. Below is a summary of these other significant themes that appear within the literature.

1. Comparing Jurisdictions One group of articles compares how different nations apply procedural rules to disputes arising from Internet activities.248 These articles generally demonstrate how countries have different tests for determining personal jurisdiction and choice of law issues and that these tests lead to differing outcomes depending on the forum selected. The majority of these articles compare the personal jurisdiction and choice of law analyses of the United States with the laws of E.U. member states, Australia and Canada.249 One article also examines Japanese law.250

Many of the articles in this subsection examine, in particular, how jurisdictional issues arise as a result of differences in the substantive laws of the countries compared. Several scholars focus on e‐commerce disputes and specifically how differences in consumer protection laws raise jurisdictional concerns.251

Another group of authors discusses how differences in defamation and free speech laws cause parties to forum shop.252 One author examines differences in privacy laws.253

The articles present a range of ideas about how to address the differences in jurisdictional law. A number of articles suggest that some international agreement is needed so that there is more certainty about when an actor will be subject to personal jurisdiction in a specific nation.254 These articles also suggest that an international body such as the International Court of Justice may need to govern substantial choice of law disputes. Other articles however argue that international agreement is unlikely because of the differing values and priorities of the countries involved.255 Some authors in this group suggest that Internet actors may need to consider non‐legal tools to ensure jurisdictional certainty such as using disclaimers on websites or instituting geo‐location technologies.256

2. Federalism Five articles focus on the competence of individual U.S. states to regulate and adjudicate issues that arise from cross‐border Internet activity.257 These articles argue that the Internet is challenging the territorial nature of federalism, but generally argue that federalist principles should survive in the digital realm.258 One author, for example, claims courts and commentators “overstate the case” for exclusive

federal regulation of the Internet.259 He believes states should be able "to protect their interests and their citizens" so long as those regulations represent "strong" state interests, and cites case law supporting these rights.260 Another author adopts a slightly different perspective.261 He contends that geolocation technologies are the key to ensuring the relevance of state boundaries, and thus state sovereignty, on the Internet.262

3. Practice‐Oriented Articles One subset of the literature provides practice‐oriented analysis of jurisdiction law.263 These articles are typically written for a practitioner audience in order to provide them with summaries of the relevant law and with tips on counseling clients.

piracy facilitated by data havens by challenging pirates’ notions of citizenship, obtaining international financial arrangements such as taxes, and using principles of international law and taxation.285

G. Miscellaneous Articles In addition to the themes described above, Fordham CLIP identified over 40 other themes in the literature. Many of these themes arose in only one or two of the articles surveyed. A few emerged in slightly larger clusters. These articles addressed a great variety of subjects related to Internet jurisdiction. Some, for example, discuss the ethical considerations for the practice of law on the Internet.286 Others analyze the issues surrounding the extraterritorial application of statutes criminalizing child pornography transmitted via the Internet.287 Still others examine the ways in which different territorial jurisdictions hold intermediaries like Internet service providers liable for content posted on the Internet.288 These are just a few examples of the diverse areas covered by the surveyed scholarship.

III. Analysis of the Key U.S. Case Law Although many cases addressed non‐Internet related facts that impacted the outcome as to jurisdiction, the Fordham CLIP research team noted distinct trends within the body of seminal U.S. case law. The following will discuss general findings noted through Fordham CLIP’s research, observed trends as to case subject matter, and patterns as to applied tests and court analysis.

A. General Findings Internet jurisdiction disputes are most prominent within certain federal circuits, as well as within the subset area of personal jurisdiction. Further, precedent is observably shaped by non‐Internet case law and traditional principles of jurisdiction.

1. Unequal Distribution Among the Circuits During its analysis, Fordham CLIP noted that Internet jurisdiction issues trend toward specific federal circuits. The circuit‐by‐circuit case distribution based upon the search methodology described above in Table 4 is as follows:289

First Circuit 117

Second Circuit 389

Third Circuit 257

Fourth Circuit 283

Fifth Circuit 195

Sixth Circuit 289

Seventh Circuit 192

Eighth Circuit 195

Ninth Circuit 884

Tenth Circuit 235

Eleventh Circuit 251

District of Columbia Circuit 89

Federal Circuit 6

Specifically, these jurisdictional questions appear most frequently within the Ninth Circuit, which heard more than twice the number of Internet jurisdiction cases than any other federal circuit. Approximately 25 percent of the 41 seminal cases identified originate from the Ninth Circuit. The second most common circuit for Internet jurisdiction cases is the Second Circuit. Conversely, there are comparably few Internet jurisdiction cases from the First Circuit, the District of Columbia Circuit or the Federal Circuit, suggesting that these are less important circuits for Internet jurisdiction matters. With respect to the remaining federal circuits, there appears to be a relatively equal distribution of Internet jurisdiction cases among them.

289 The circuit‐by‐circuit distribution numbers include false positives appearing within the search results prior to filtering, as well as duplicate cases appearing within multiple search categories. As a result, the numbers are meaningful only as an indicator for broad trends in the distribution of cases across the circuits.

2. Narrow Range of Jurisdiction Within the seminal cases identified by the Fordham CLIP team, personal jurisdiction was the sole area that the courts addressed. Each of the 41 seminal cases confronts matters relating to personal jurisdiction; none of the decisions approached questions regarding choice of law or enforcement matters. This central focus by U.S. courts on personal jurisdiction in Internet matters was surprising.

3. Significant Cited Non‐Internet Cases Of the 41 seminal cases within the dataset, 15 percent are wholly unrelated to the Internet: Brainerd v. Governors of Univ. of Alberta;290 Burger King Corp. v. Rudzewicz;291 Calder v. Jones;292 Dakota Indus., Inc. v. Dakota Sportswear, Inc.;293 Goodyear Dunlop Tires Operations, S.A. v. Brown;294 and Trujillo v. Williams.295 This trend demonstrates that non‐Internet, traditional jurisdiction cases remain important to U.S. courts when Internet jurisdiction issues arise and that new Internet‐focused tests and analytical frameworks are not separately and exclusively applied.296

B. Subject Matter Trends297 The dataset of seminal U.S. case law further demonstrates that personal jurisdiction is particularly at issue in cases involving intellectual property disputes and defamation on the Internet.

1. Intellectual Property A majority (62%) of the seminal cases identified by the Fordham CLIP team centered on disputes regarding intellectual property. Specifically, 43% of the cases were related to trademarks;298 20%

290 873 F.2d 1257 (9th Cir. 1989). 291 471 U.S. 462 (1985). 292 465 U.S. 783 (1984). 293 946 F.2d 1384 (8th Cir. 1991). 294 564 U. S. ____, 131 S.Ct. 2846 (2011). 295 465 F.3d 1210 (10th Cir. 2006). 296 We note that two other cases appearing within the dataset of seminal case law were decided on motions to dismiss. See Neogen Corp. v. Neo Gen Screening, Inc., 282 F.3d 883 (6th Cir. 2002), and Sportschannel New England Ltd. P'ship v. Fancaster, Inc., 2010 WL 3895177 (D.Mass. 2010). The standard of review required a determination that the facts construed in the light most favorable to the plaintiff made a prima facie showing of jurisdiction. A third case, Trintec Indus., Inc. v. Pedre Promotional Prods., Inc., 395 F.3d 1275 (Fed.Cir. 2005), related to a dispute over discovery and only tangentially addressed the issue of the court’s jurisdiction, instead, sending the case back to the district court to provide a reasoned opinion. 297 The analysis in the following section excludes the 6 cases that were unrelated to the Internet as described in Section III(A)(3). The two cases decided on motions to dismiss [Neogen Corp. v. Neo Gen Screening, Inc., 282 F.3d 883 (6th Cir. 2002), and Sportschannel New England Ltd. P'ship v. Fancaster, Inc., 2010 WL 3895177 (D.Mass. 2010)] were included for the analysis of subject matter trends, but were excluded from the analysis of cases addressing Zippo and Calder. The discovery case, Trintec Indus., Inc. v. Pedre Promotional Prods., Inc., 395 F.3d 1275 (Fed.Cir. 2005), was similarly included to determine subject matter trends and excluded for the analysis of Zippo and Calder. 298 Bancroft & Masters, Inc. v. Augusta Nat. Inc., 223 F.3d 1082 (9th Cir. 2000); Be2LLC v. Ivanov, 642 F.3d 555 (7th Cir. 2011); Bird v. Parsons, 289 F.3d 865 (6th Cir. 2002); Carefirst of Maryland, Inc. v. Carefirst Pregnancy Ctrs., Inc., 334 F.3d 390 (4th Cir. 2003); Citigroup Inc. v. City Holding Co., 97 F.Supp.2d 549 (S.D.N.Y. 2000); CollegeSource, Inc. v. AcademyOne, Inc., 653 F.3d 1066 (9th Cir. 2011); CompuServe, Inc. v. Patterson, 89 F.3d 1257 (6th Cir. 1996); Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc., 130 F.3d 414 (9th Cir. 1997); Lindgren v. GDT, 312 F.Supp.2d 1125 (S.D. Iowa 2004);

related to copyright;299 and 9% related to patents.300 However, despite observing a trend that intellectual property seemed to generate more Internet jurisdiction disputes than other subject matters, there appears to be no special rule developed by the courts specific for adjudicating those jurisdictional issues specifically involving intellectual property.

2. Defamation Defamation cases were also prevalent within the seminal case dataset, with 8 of 35 cases relating to the intentional tort.301 As discussed in Section III(C)(1), there is special emphasis in defamation cases on the “effects test” for establishing personal jurisdiction as articulated by the United States Supreme Court in Calder v. Jones.302 Nevertheless, half of the defamation cases within the data set still cited Zippo Manufacturing Co. v. Zippo Dot Com, Inc.,303 even if Calder was also considered and applied.304

C. Tests Applied – Post‐Zippo Trends305 The data also demonstrates several patterns with respect to the tests that courts apply in cases involving Internet jurisdiction. The most prominent is the tremendous emphasis on Zippo Manufacturing Co. v. Zippo Dot Com, Inc.306 Prior to the Zippo decision in 1997, the landscape in the area of Internet jurisdiction consisted most notably of three precedential court decisions: Calder v. Jones,307 Inset Systems, Inc. v. Instruction Set, Inc.,308 and CompuServe, Inc. v. Patterson.309 Zippo’s

Caddy, 453 F.3d 1151 (9th Cir. 2006); Sportschannel New England Ltd. P'ship v. Fancaster, Inc., 2010 WL 3895177 (D.Mass. 2010); Toys “R” Us, Inc. v.

Consultants, Inc., 293 F.3d 707 (4th Cir. 2002); Bird v. Parsons, 289 F.3d 865 (6th Cir. 2002); Blackburn v. Walker Oriental Rug Galleries, Inc., 999 F.Supp. 636 (E.D.Pa.1998); Brayton Purcell LLP v. Recordon & Recordon, 606 F.3d 1124 (9th Cir. 2010); CollegeSource, Inc. v. AcademyOne, Inc., 653 F.3d 1066 (9th Cir. 2011); Mavrix v. Brand Technologies, 647 F.3d 1218 (9th Cir. 2011); and Mink v. AAAA Dev. LLC, 190 F.3d 333 (5th Cir. 1999). 300 ESAB Group, Inc. v. Centricut, LLC, 34 F.Supp.2d 323 (D.S.C. 1999); Mink v. AAAA Dev. LLC, 190 F.3d 333 (5th Cir. 1999); and Trintec Indus., Inc. v. Pedre Promotional Prods., Inc., 395 F.3d 1275 (Fed.Cir. 2005). 301 Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Best Van Lines, Inc. v. Walker, 490 F.3d 239 (2d Cir. 2007); Bombliss v. Cornelsen, 824 N.E.2d 1175 (2005); Internet Solutions Corp. v. Marshall, 611 F.3d 1368 (11th Cir. 2010); Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467 (5th Cir. 2002); Shrader v. Biddinger, 633 F.3d 1235 (10th Cir. 2011); Tamburo v. Dworkin, 601 F.3d 693 (7th Cir. 2010); and Young v. New Haven Advocate, 315 F.3d 256 (4th Cir. 2002). 302 465 U.S. 783 (1984). 303 952 F.Supp. 1119 (W.D.Pa. 1997). 304 Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Best Van Lines, Inc. v. Walker, 490 F.3d 239 (2d Cir. 2007); Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467 (5th Cir. 2002); and Shrader v. Biddinger, 633 F.3d 1235 (10th Cir. 2011). 305 The analysis in the following section excludes from the 41 seminal cases identified: (i) the 6 cases that were unrelated to the Internet (see Section III(A)(3)); (ii) the 3 cases that merit distinction from the others due to standard of review or procedural focus (see note 296); and (iii) Zippo itself as the Section relates to Zippo reliance and the identified seminal decisions that follow. Thus, the numerical figures in the following analysis are based upon a total of 31 cases that remain after the aforementioned were excluded. 306 952 F.Supp. 1119 (W.D.Pa. 1997). 307 465 U.S. 783 (1984) (creating the “effects test” for establishing personal jurisdiction). 308 937 F.Supp. 161 (D.Conn.1996). 309 89 F.3d 1257 (6th Cir. 1996) (adjudicating matters of Internet jurisdiction through use of traditional jurisdictional standards).

current prominence within the U.S. judiciary’s modern approach to Internet jurisdiction demonstrates an almost universal rejection of Inset Systems, which held that “passive” Internet advertising might suffice as sufficient to establish personal jurisdiction.310 To the contrary, and as discussed below, the “effects test” articulated in Calder remains viable within modern Internet jurisdiction jurisprudence. With respect to the seminal cases in the dataset that did not rely on either Zippo or Calder, the majority applied traditional offline principles of jurisdiction to the Internet setting such as the Sixth Circuit in CompuServe.311

1. Calder’s Enduring Test A substantial number of important Internet jurisdiction decisions cite to Calder and apply its “effects test,” demonstrating that Calder remains vitally important. With respect to cases within the dataset that did not apply Zippo, most applied either Calder’s “effects test”312 explicitly313 or applied the “express aiming” or “purposeful direction” element of the Calder “effects test.”314 The Fordham CLIP team also noted that Calder was principally central in cases involving intentional torts, with significant application of Calder in cases addressing claims of online defamation.315

2. Zippo’s Test The results show that Zippo stands with Calder as one of the two leading tests applied by courts with respect to Internet jurisdiction. It is important to note, however, that courts apply Zippo and Calder both concurrently and separately and do not construe the two tests as mutually exclusive.316 Notwithstanding, the Fordham CLIP team identified some distinct trends in the application of the Zippo “sliding scale” as it was addressed in court decisions; namely, the approach is most apt for analysis of specific, rather than general, personal jurisdiction.317

310 Id. 311 See, e.g., Best Van Lines, Inc. v. Walker, 490 F.3d 239 (2d Cir. 2007); Boschetto v. Hansing, 539 F.3d 1011 (9th Cir.2008); Cossaboon v. Maine Med.

Dworkin, 601 F.3d 693 (7th Cir. 2010) (express aiming). 315 Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467 (5th Cir. 2002); Shrader v. Biddinger, 633 F.3d 1235 (10th Cir. 2011); Tamburo v. Dworkin, 601 F.3d 693 (7th Cir. 2010); and Young v. New Haven Advocate, 315 F.3d 256 (4th Cir. 2002). 316 See, e.g., Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467, 471‐2 (5th Cir. 2002) (“Nor is the Zippo scale, as has been suggested, in tension with the “effects” test of Calder v. Jones for intentional torts.”). 317 In examining matters of personal jurisdiction, a court may assert either general or specific jurisdiction (Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc., 130 F.3d 414, 416 (9th Cir. 1997) (citing Helicopteros Nacionales de Columbia, S.A. v. Hall, 466 U.S. 408, 414 (1984)). General jurisdiction requires “continuous and systematic” contacts (see, e.g., Helicopteros Nacionales de Columbia, S.A. v. Hall, 466 U.S. 408, 414‐15 (1984)). With respect to specific jurisdiction, there are variant tests. However, most generally articulate one which requires that “minimum

Some courts within the dataset were not detailed as to application of Zippo with respect to its fit within a traditional jurisdiction analytical framework.318 However, other courts are more nuanced and state explicitly whether they were applying Zippo for specific jurisdiction as compared to general jurisdiction. One leading approach is that Zippo has limited value in the general jurisdiction context.319 Conversely, there is also a significant focus on the application of Zippo for specific jurisdiction analysis.320

3. Applications of Zippo In addition to the above distinction as to when Zippo is most often precedential, the dataset of seminal cases also evidenced certain trends with respect to how the Zippo sliding scale itself is most frequently applied.

i. Unadapted Application Many decisions within the dataset simply conducted a factual analysis to determine whether jurisdiction exists by virtue of Internet activity without adaptation of the Zippo test.321 Courts’ factual analyses contacts” exist either in the form of “purposeful availment” or “purposeful direction” on the part of the defendant (see, e.g., Brainerd, 873 F.2d at 1259 (“The nonresident defendant must either: [i] purposefully direct his activities or consummate some transaction with the forum or resident thereof; or [ii] perform some act by which he purposefully avails himself of the privilege of conducting activities in the forum, thereby invoking the benefits and protections of its laws.”). 318 See, e.g., Bombliss v. Cornelsen, 824 N.E.2d 1175 (2005) (made no distinction between general and specific jurisdiction). 319 Citigroup Inc. v. City Holding Co., 97 F.Supp.2d 549, 571 (S.D.N.Y. 2000) (Because Zippo concerns specific jurisdiction, it does not assist much with regard to whether activities satisfied “solicitation plus” test for general jurisdiction); Cossaboon v. Maine Med. Ctr., 600 F.3d 25, 36 n.5 (1st Cir. 2010) (In reference to Zippo, “given the considerably more stringent standard for establishing general jurisdiction, we find most helpful those decisions addressing whether website activity supports an exercise of general, rather than specific, jurisdiction.”); Lakin v. Prudential Sec., Inc., 348 F.3d 704 (8th Cir . 2003) (“We agree with the courts that do not apply the ‘sliding scale’ presumptively for cases of general jurisdiction.”); and Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467, 471 (5th Cir. 2002) (“Zippo’s scale does more work with specific jurisdiction‐the context in which it was originally conceived.”). It is important to note, however, that there were outliers within the dataset, where Zippo was specifically applied in the general jurisdiction context despite the predominant approach (ESAB Group, Inc. v. Centricut, LLC, 34 F.Supp.2d 323 (D.S.C. 1999); Mink v. AAAA Dev. LLC, 190 F.3d 333 (5th Cir. 1999)). 320 ALS Scan, Inc. v. Digital Serv. Consultants, Inc., 293 F.3d 707 (4th Cir. 2002); Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Bird v. Parsons, 289 F.3d 865 (6th Cir. 2002); Carefirst of Maryland, Inc. v. Carefirst Pregnancy Ctrs., Inc., 334 F.3d 390 (4th Cir. 2003); Citigroup Inc. v. City Holding Co., 97 F.Supp.2d 549 (S.D.N.Y. 2000); Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc., 130 F.3d 414 (9th Cir. 1997); Lindgren v. GDT, 312 F.Supp.2d 1125 (S.D. Iowa 2004); Millennium Enter. v. Millennium Music, 33 F.Supp.2d 907 (D.Or. 1999); Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467 (5th Cir. 2002); Toys “R” Us, Inc. v. Step Two, S.A., 318 F.3d 446 (3d Cir. 2003); and Young v. New Haven Advocate, 315 F.3d 256 (4th Cir. 2002). Two cases within the dataset did not apply Zippo in their specific jurisdiction analyses (Boschetto v. Hansing, 539 F.3d 1011 (9th Cir.2008), and MacNeil v. Trambert, 932 N.E.2d 441 (Ill. App. Ct. 2010)). However, because both cases regard disputes as to eBay transactions, and eBay is not a party, its website is not at issue and, thus, Zippo would not come into play. 321 Bird v. Parsons, 289 F.3d 865 (6th Cir. 2002); Blackburn v. Walker Oriental Rug Galleries, Inc., 999 F.Supp. 636 (E.D.Pa.1998); Bombliss v. Cornelsen, 824 N.E.2d 1175 (2005); Citigroup Inc. v. City Holding Co., 97 F.Supp.2d 549 (S.D.N.Y. 2000); Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc., 130 F.3d 414 (9th Cir. 1997); ESAB Group, Inc. v. Centricut, LLC, 34 F.Supp.2d 323 (D.S.C. 1999) (focused on the level of commercial activity after classifying into the intermediate category); Mink v. AAAA Dev. LLC, 190 F.3d 333 (5th Cir. 1999); and Revell v. Lidov, 317 F.3d 467 (5th Cir. 2002) (factual analysis determining a low level of interactivity).

either (i) determine whether to place the activity onto the extreme ends of the sliding scale, in the “passive” or “clearly conducts business” categories, or (ii) categorize the activity in the middle category, gauging the level of interactivity and nature and quality of the commercial activity.322

ii. Adapted Application Numerous decisions within the dataset, however, adapted and expanded the Zippo test. The Fordham CLIP team identified a connection between adaptation of the analytical framework established in Zippo and categorization of particular Internet activity on its sliding scale. Most adaptations and additions to the Zippo sliding scale stem from judicial review of the level of interactivity and commercial nature of the online activity when categorizing it in the intermediate category of the Zippo sliding scale.323

Few cases within the dataset articulated variations or additions to Zippo when categorizing the activity on either end of the sliding scale. One notable example, however, is ALS Scan, Inc. v. Digital Serv. Consultants, Inc.324 Despite classifying the website as “passive,” the court promulgated a three‐part test to adapt the Zippo model, stating that “[a] State may, consistent with due process, exercise judicial power over a person outside of the State when that person (1) directs electronic activity into the State, (2) with the manifested intent of engaging in business or other interactions within the State, and (3) that activity creates, in a person within the State, a potential cause of action cognizable in the State's courts.”325 The Fordham CLIP team noted that, within the Fourth Circuit, there is a distinct tendency to follow ALS Scan and apply its test in conjunction with the Zippo sliding scale model.326 In order to find jurisdiction, these courts determine where Internet activity fits within the Zippo sliding scale and then look to see that each of the three elements established in ALS Scan are also met.

As a concluding remark, numerous cases within the dataset follow Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc.327 and apply an “intent to target” or “express aiming” standard in union with the Zippo sliding scale.328 This seems to blur the tests of Calder and Zippo, incorporating into the Zippo analysis an overlapping

322 Id. 323 Carefirst of Maryland, Inc. v. Carefirst Pregnancy Ctrs., Inc., 334 F.3d 390 (4th Cir. 2003) (applying ALS Scan’s three‐part test adapting the Zippo model) (see note 326); Lindgren v. GDT, 312 F.Supp.2d 1125 (S.D. Iowa 2004) (after classifying into the intermediate category, focused upon intent to purposefully target forum state); Millennium Enter. v. Millennium Music, 33 F.Supp.2d 907 (D.Or. 1999) (after classifying into the intermediate category, focuses upon whether there was deliberate action within the forum state and whether defendant purposefully directed its conduct at residents of the forum state); and Toys “R” Us, Inc. v. Step Two, S.A., 318 F.3d 446 (3d Cir. 2003) (factual analysis as to whether interactive website directly targeted forum state). 324 293 F.3d 707 (4th Cir. 2002). 325 ALS Scan, Inc. v. Digital Serv. Consultants, Inc., 293 F.3d 707, 714 (4th Cir. 2002); 326 Indeed, the other Fourth Circuit cases within the seminal case dataset follow and apply ALS Scan (Carefirst of Maryland, Inc. v. Carefirst Pregnancy Ctrs., Inc., 334 F.3d 390 (4th Cir. 2003); Young v. New Haven Advocate, 315 F.3d 256 (4th Cir. 2002)). 327 130 F.3d 414 (9th Cir. 1997). 328 ALS Scan, Inc. v. Digital Serv. Consultants, Inc., 293 F.3d 707, 714 (4th Cir. 2002); Barrett v. Catacombs Press, 44 F.Supp.2d 717 (E.D.Pa. 1999); Carefirst of Maryland, Inc. v. Carefirst Pregnancy Ctrs., Inc., 334 F.3d 390 (4th Cir. 2003); Cybersell, Inc. v. Cybersell, Inc., 130 F.3d 414 (9th Cir. 1997); ESAB Group, Inc. v. Centricut, LLC, 34 F.Supp.2d 323 (D.S.C. 1999); Lindgren v. GDT, 312 F.Supp.2d 1125 (S.D. Iowa 2004); Millennium Enter. v. Millennium Music, 33 F.Supp.2d 907 (D.Or. 1999); Toys “R” Us, Inc. v. Step Two, S.A., 318 F.3d 446 (3d Cir. 2003); and Young v. New Haven Advocate, 315 F.3d 256 (4th Cir. 2002.

component of the Calder effects test.329 As a result of this blurring, the body of case law within the seminal decision dataset does not reflect one clear, reconcilable framework for Internet jurisdiction issues as approached uniformly by U.S. courts.

IV. Conclusion The research results show that there is a substantial body of scholarship published over the last decade that addresses jurisdictional issues for Internet activity. The majority of this scholarship discusses all three aspects of jurisdiction law—personal jurisdiction, choice of law and jurisdiction to enforce— within the individual articles. In addition, taken together, the literature treats a noticeably wide variety of legal areas including, for example, analyses of specific cases, particular issues related to e‐commerce, and the regulation of online speech. Across the literature, the scholarship tends to concentrate on questions related to personal jurisdiction. Notably, the scholarship seems most interested in how courts determine whether they have power over litigants and whether that determination is fair and soundly reached. But, overall, the literature does not appear to have a consensus on an approach or solution that cuts across the varied areas of law addressed by the scholarship. In effect, the results of the review of academic scholarship show that Internet jurisdiction is as varied as the legal issues and fields of law it permeates.

With respect to U.S. case law, the research indicates that issues surrounding Internet jurisdiction gravitate toward the Ninth Circuit and the Second Circuit more so than other federal circuits. Further, the research demonstrates that, contrary to the body of academic literature, U.S. courts predominantly adjudicate matters of personal jurisdiction in Internet cases rather than other subsets of jurisdiction, and that Internet jurisdiction issues trend toward intellectual property and defamation cases. With regard to how Internet jurisdictional matters are settled within U.S. jurisprudence, the research results indicate that the Zippo and Calder tests remain the dominant ones applied, but that these tests are not mutually‐exclusive. Although Zippo is most often applied in matters of specific jurisdiction, there exists a varied and, at times, blurred framework which incorporates the Zippo sliding scale and Calder’s effects test, as well as traditional standards for personal jurisdiction. Therefore, although the landscape for Internet jurisdiction matters has clear, predominant legal standards and tests, on the whole, when and how these are applied by U.S. courts lacks uniformity.
