Historical Development of Cyber Law

The emergence of cyber law can be traced back to the advent of the internet and the proliferation of digital technologies. It has evolved in response to the changing landscape of cyberspace. Key milestones in the historical development of cyber law include:

1970s and 1980s: The foundation of cyber law was laid during this period when computer technology began to advance. The first computer-related laws primarily focused on computer crimes and data protection.

1990s: The growth of the internet led to the need for legal regulations in cyberspace. The United States enacted the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) in 1986, and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) treaties on copyright and trademark laws were established.

2000s: The emergence of e-commerce and the need for online consumer protection led to the development of laws and regulations related to online transactions. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) was enacted in 1998.

2010s and Beyond: The 2010s witnessed the proliferation of social media, cloud computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT). New cyber threats and challenges prompted governments to strengthen cybersecurity measures and enact data protection laws, such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

USA TODAY was provided copies of the emailed threats, which were also sent to Alejandra Caraballo, a clinical instructor at the Harvard Law School Cyberlaw Clinic who writes frequently about the issues.

One emailed threat was apparently sent to Anne Perry, a state representative. Perry, a Democrat who represents a small district in far-northeastern Maine, is the main sponsor of LD227, a bill introduced this week that would protect doctors in the state who provide gender affirming care to patients from states that have laws hostile to such treatment.  

The threat also apparently named Sen. Donna Bailey, Perry’s co-sponsor on the bill. 

Earlier this week, Perry and Bailey were targeted in a series of posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, by Libs of TikTok. The tweets listed both lawmakers’ email addresses.

In January, the Maine State House was evacuated for a bomb threat on the first day of the legislative session. At the time, the legislature was considering another bill on transgender care. That bill died in committee later the same month. 

Calls and emails to Perry, the Maine State Police, Maine Capitol Police and FBI were not immediately returned.

Information Technology Act, 2000: The Information Technology Act, 2000 (IT Act), served as a foundational piece of legislation in India's cyber law landscape. It provided legal recognition to electronic transactions, introduced digital signatures, and established legal remedies for cybercrimes.

Amendments to the IT Act: Subsequent amendments to the IT Act, such as those in 2008 and 2009, expanded the scope of cybercrimes and penalties. These amendments were critical in addressing emerging challenges in cyberspace.

National Cyber Security Policy, 2013: The National Cyber Security Policy aimed to protect critical information infrastructure, promote cybersecurity awareness, and strengthen the regulatory framework for cyberspace.

Data Protection Framework: The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union and the Personal Data Protection Bill, 2019, in India signalled a shift towards stronger data protection and privacy regulations.

Recent Cybersecurity Initiatives: India has undertaken various cybersecurity initiatives, including the launch of the National Cyber Coordination Centre (NCCC) and the development of the Cyber Swachhta Kendra (Botnet Cleaning and Malware Analysis Centre).

An Arkansas lawmaker shocked onlookers this week when he asked a transgender health care professional about her genitals at a hearing on a bill that would prohibit gender-affirming care for minors.

Gwendolyn Herzig, a pharmacist who is a trans woman, was testifying Monday in support of the treatment for minors during a state Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.

“You said that you’re a trans woman?” Republican state Sen. Matt McKee asked Herzig. “Do you have a penis?”

The audience erupted, with some audibly gasping and at least one person shouting, "Disgraceful."

"That's horrible," Herzig said, after taking a few moments to gather herself. "I don't know what my rights are, but that question was horribly inappropriate."

Herzig, who holds a doctorate of pharmacy, then added: "I'm a health care professional, a doctor. Please treat me as such. Next question, please."

Herzig said she went into Monday's hearing hoping that Republican lawmakers would be receptive to hearing her perspective as a trans woman and a health professional.

"Any other question I was expecting other than what I got," Herzig, 33, said in a phone interview with NBC News. "It was probably the most publicly humiliating thing I've ever gone through."

McKee did not immediately respond to NBC News' request for comment.

The exchange prompted outrage on social media from trans activists and the state's Democrats.

"Absolutely sickening," Alejandra Caraballo, a clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic, wrote on Twitter. "Arkansas State senator Matt McKee asked a trans person at a legislative hearing 'do you have a penis?' Does this State Senator have any basic human decency?"

The Democratic Party of Arkansas tweeted, "Republicans are not hiding their transphobia."

The legislation, S.B. 199, introduced in the Arkansas Senate this month, would prohibit physicians in the state from providing most types of gender-affirming care to minors, including prescribing puberty blockers or hormone replacement therapy, or from performing transition-related surgeries.

It would also allow anyone in the state who has received gender-affirming care as a minor to file a malpractice lawsuit against physicians for up to 30 years after they turn 18.

More than a dozen major medical organizations, including the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Psychological Association, support the treatments that would be barred if the bill becomes law.

In 2021, Arkansas became the first state to ban gender-affirming care for minors, but a federal judge temporarily blocked the law. The 2021 legislation largely mirrors the bill introduced this year.

Five other states have enacted similar forms of the legislation, including South Dakota, whose Governor signed a measure into law on Monday.

Less than two months into 2023, lawmakers in at least 24 states, including Arkansas, have introduced legislation that would restrict transition-related care for minors, according to an NBC News analysis.

S.B. 199 advanced through Arkansas' Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday, and it is expected to pass through the state Senate in upcoming weeks.

After testifying, Herzig said she defiantly sat through the rest of the hearing before heading back to work at the pharmacy she owns, Park West Pharmacy in Little Rock, the state capital.

As video of her exchange with McKee spreads on social media, Herzig said, "Going viral, I guess, is OK."

"I really just hope it just shows people that there's people like me who want to stand up and that there are people who want to make sure there are access to resources," she added.
