Abstract
This chapter explores how the internet materializes in one of the most
influential writings on cyberwar and international law, the Tallinn Manual on the
International Law Applicable to Cyber Warfare. Based on the work of Molly
Sauter, this chapter examines the metaphor used in the Manual to describe the
internet, what effect this particular metaphor has, and at which points specific
situations made possible by ‘cyberspace’ escape the confines of this particular
metaphor.
