Digitization and the Law

---

"Digitization of information" means, to state it in the simplest way possi‐
ble, the representation of information as a sequence of zeros and ones.
Digitized information can be edited, stored and easily transferred between
computers. In view of the high power of today's computers and their glob‐
al networking via the Internet, this means that vast amounts of information
can be processed, stored and transmitted in real time.
A second characteristic need also be considered: Digitized information
is enormously plastic. Texts, pictures, video and audio files can be con‐
verted into digitized form. Until recently, these kinds of information could
only be perceived by means of monitors, loudspeakers, or, respectively,
headphones. At the present time, a new breakthrough is emerging under
the keyword "virtuality”, meaning a significantly more intensive form of
experience which is digitally-based. The creation of virtual environments
is making extremely rapid progress so that it will soon be possible to “dive
into” deceptively real artificially created environments using data goggles.
