The talk deals with the international law governing sovereignty in cyberspace.  It describes how the Tallinn Manual 2.0 experts arrived at the conclusions set forth on the subject and notes those sovereignty issues about which consensus could not be reached.  Additionally, it will discuss a debate ongoing in the United States about whether sovereignty in merely a foundational principle of law or a primary rule of law such that the violation thereof constitutes an internationally wrongful act.
