Computers, and the Internet by extension, are powerful tools of communication and information. Some have abused these tools, others seek to impose control in one way or another. It is an interesting irony that WWW has also come to mean the "Wild, Wild West." Like in the old times, anything goes and everybody just have to watch their backs. The law is not fast enough to keep up with technology. Many cases have no precedence. Complicating matters is the absence of geographical boundaries in cyberspace. Judges, politicians, and lawyers are in a quandary what rules to apply.
