Resumen

The competent authority for settling disputes arising on the Internet, as well as the question of the applicable law, are a constant motive of uncertainty due to the cross-border nature of the Internet (Scotti, 2012). In these cases, it becomes complex for network´s users to determine which law should be obeyed or which jurisdiction responds (“contextual legal environment”) (Ramírez Plascencia, 2007).
To have caused any harm within the territory is a relatively common rule on which there is a relative consensus. But the criteria for claiming jurisdiction may be broader depending on the location. In this brief analysis, I will focus on one statute from Connecticut, which states that the court where the server is located has jurisdiction to hear the case. In MacDermid, Inc. v. Deiter , this issue was contentious.
