Biography

In 1988, Mitchell founded an early fathers' rights group in Buffalo, New York, while she was studying pre-law at SUNY Buffalo. [2] [3] Upon moving to California to attend Stanford Law School she founded the first fathers' rights BBS which she ran from her student housing.

Fathers Rights Law

After graduating from Stanford, Mitchell opened a fathers' rights law practice, through which she represented fathers wishing to remain involved in the lives of their children following divorce. She spoke publicly and privately on the issues of fathers' rights and the need for children to have their fathers involved in their lives. Mitchell spoke, by invitation, to the California judges' bench Beyond the Bench program, to Santa Clara Family Court Services, and at Governor Pete Wilson's "Focus on Fathers summit. [4]

Fathers Rights Television show

In 1997, Mitchell produced and was the host of the cable show "Fathers are Parents Too". The half-hour television talk show "focused on the concerns, issues, and realities related to becoming and staying an involved father." Thirty-six episodes of "Fathers are Parents Too" were filmed in 1997, and were shown on cable television stations throughout the United States.

Anti-spam and Internet law

In 1998, Mitchell closed her fathers' rights practice, and changed her focus to Internet law and anti-spam efforts. She joined Mail Abuse Prevention System (MAPS), the first formal anti-spam organization, as Director of Legal and Public Affairs. While at MAPS Mitchell led the strategy for the first anti-spam lawsuits. [5]

In 2002 Mitchell stepped in as CEO and co-founder of the newly created Habeas. [6] A year later Mitchell left Habeas to found and run the Institute for Spam and Internet Public Policy (ISIPP), [7]

During her tenure at Habeas, Mitchell coined the term "deliverability" and founded and led the first Email Deliverability Summits, which became the impetus for founding ISIPP when she left Habeas. [8]

Philanthropy

In September 2005, Mitchell founded Auction Aid to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina, enlisting donated items from friends and colleagues Guy Kawasaki, Béla Fleck, Warren Farrell, Anne Fadiman, Eduardo Sánchez and Sir Harold Evans, to raise more than $5,000. Originally Auction Aid was created using eBay's "Giving Works" platform, about which Mitchell later criticized. [9]

In February 2008, Mitchell spearheaded the Boulder Dushanbe Relief effort, coordinating with the World Food Programme and the Dushanbe Tea House to help the people of Tajikistan, who were facing a deadly winter. That effort raised more than $14,000 which went to the World Food Programme in Tajikistan. [10]

There is no commonly agreed single definition of “cybercrime”. It refers to illegal internet-mediated activities that often take place in global electronic networks. Cybercrime is "international" or "transnational" – there are ‘no cyber-borders between countries'. International cybercrimes often challenge the effectiveness of domestic and international law, and law enforcement. Because existing laws in many countries are not tailored to deal with cybercrime, criminals increasingly conduct crimes on the Internet in order to take advantages of the less severe punishments or difficulties of being traced. No matter, in developing or developed countries, governments and industries have gradually realized the colossal threats of cybercrime on economic and political security and public interests. However, complexity in types and forms of cybercrime increases the difficulty to fight back. In this sense, fighting cybercrime calls for international cooperation. Various organizations and governments have already made joint efforts in establishing global standards of legislation and law enforcement both on a regional and on an international scale. China–United States cooperation is one of the most striking progress recently, because they are the top two source countries of cybercrime.
