This article uses network theory, a branch of complexity theory, to examine questions of internet jurisdiction in context of intentional torts and intellectual property harms -- the types of internet harms traditional personal jurisdiction frameworks have difficulty addressing. It then proposes a trusted systems approach to these jurisdictional determinations.
