"'From the very first lines of the ""Preface"" until the ""Way forward"" addressed in the last section, this very well written book covers all main areas of EU internet law regulation, and has been a valuable source ever since the first edition, for both practicing lawyers and scholars. Andrej Savin is one of the few all-round internet law specialists, and masters uniquely the broad spectrum of internet law ranging from telecommunication law, ISP liability, cyber security, contracting, data protection, etc.' -- Arno R. Lodder, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, the Netherlands 'This book by Andrej Savin is an excellent masterpiece coping with the phenomenon of ""Internet law"", which has been underevaluated as its objective seems to be opaque and horizontal and does not fit into the general classification of legal areas. Savin's aim is not to provide an in-depth analysis of EU copyright, EU privacy or EU consumer protection - rather the book tackles an overall analysis of how all the different disciplines fit together with regard to the Internet regulation and policies of the EU. Even though Savin does not claim to scrutinize every detail of legal areas that are relevant, he succeeds in writing an outstanding book which provides a thorough overview of Internet policies and regulations. The third edition takes all recent developments into account, from the forthcoming Digital Services Act to the recently adopted Digital Content Directive, as well as new decisions of the CJEU. Hence, for everybody who is interested in the development of EU Internet Law I can strongly recommend this book.' -- Gerald Spindler, University of Gottingen, Germany"
