As information and communication technologies are reshaping the world we live in, these same technologies are also being abused for criminal activities. Many of the attributes of these new technologys - low cost, ease of use, and anonymous nature, among others - make them an attractive medium for fraudulent scams, includeing economic theft, such as hacking, attacks on banks or financial systems and fraud related to credit cards or electronic funds transfer as well as investment fraud , and child sexual exploitation, and increasingly, as well as a new concern known as "cyberstalking."

Legislation at both the federal and state level provide for the prosecution of computer crime. Although computer crimes can be prosecuted using federal statutes that are exclusively focused on computer crime, many prosecutors do not use these specific computer-related statutes. Instead, prosecutors often continue to use traditional criminal law statutes in computer crime prosecutions. Although computer crime laws develop to accommodate new forms of criminal activity, the law has moved relatively slowly in comparison to the rapid development of computer technology.

However,recent decisions in federal courts, as well as changes to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,reflect a shift toward holding respondents (i.e., the providers of information requested during discovery) responsible to pay for producing ESI. more
