On cybercrime or computer-related crime

Abstract

This paper aims to delve into the draft law on cybercrime or computer-related crime, as well as to analyze the importance, the challenges, and above all to review the positive, negative and contrary issues or even issues that may be questionable for its enactment. For the law, regulations always present – apart from the discussion – a series of necessary debates that tend to improve the law or regulation intended to be incorporated into our legal system, through legislative technique and of course the participation of specialists on different areas. This paper seeks to disclose the regulation that is intended to be embedded into the Uruguayan legal system, based on a world benchmark international instrument, and the implications of this new, current regulation, which is a worldwide challenge and concern.
