Abstract
Introduction:
Anyone who has been following the evolution of the law on Internet jurisdiction would have noticed the ebb and flow of developments. With decisions such as the Canadian Supreme Court's ruling in Google v Equustek, 1 the Court of Justice of the European Union's (CJEU) decision in Bolagsupplysningen OOZ and the Supreme Court of New South Wales' ruling in Xv Twitter,3 2017 signalled that we are in a period of serious flow. However, the cases of 201 7 pale in significance when viewed next to what we can expect from 2018.
In 2018, we will get to experience the Supreme Court of the United States' hearing and decision in the much-anticipated MicrosoftWarrantcase.4 And we will also see the CJEU's hearing, and possibly decision, in the arguably even more important Google France case.5
I devote this contribution to an analysis of these two cases, both of which may significantly impact data driven innovation, privacy and national sovereignty in a global world.
