Order Description

Your have created an amazing new scientific product called the "widget." You have decided that an e-business is the best way to sell your product. You will have no brick & mortar stores. Your creative team has put together an amazing website and domain name to market your  "widget." It contains some original intellectual property and some that is borrowed. You meet with your lawyers to discuss the issues of starting an e-business, protection of your product and intellectual property issues. Your domicile is currently Delaware, but your website may be viewed all over the world and your will ship your product anywhere.

Six months later you are off and running, unfortunately, a defective widget was sent to a California individual who now has brought a lawsuit against you and has also started an online blog about how you are really a child pornographer and your widget business is just a front. Your business revenue starts to drop significantly. You try to stop the blog but the individual claims a Constitutional right to state his opinion, he also states that you are trying to violate his Constitutional rights. To make matters worse a German terrorist organization has stolen the idea for your widget (online) and is threatening to use it for evil unless you pay them one million dollars. You call your local police to report this.

For your final project, research and discuss the issues that are presented in the above scenario. At a minimum, you will need to discuss issues of jurisdiction, e-business, intellectual property, cybercrimes and Constitutional law.
