Domestic Information Intelligence Operations

Commanding the Trend—A Policy Analysis

Abstract:

This article seeks to define what an Internet Referral Unit (‘IRU’) is by examining different IRUs in various jurisdictions and discerning their functions. It also makes a policy argument with respect to the implementation of an IRU in an Australian domestic setting. It does so by analysing Anglo-Saxon norms with respect to censorship and determining the best means of implementing an IRU that would give effect to rational public policy. It does so to highlight, through a legal history perspective and policy success perspective, that cybersecurity often brings with it new challenges to age-old questions. The paper posits that the establishment of an IRU would be consistent with Anglo-Saxon practice, leading to the issue of what legal frameworks would need to be established.
