Abstract

With the advancement of technology, generations Y and Z are increasingly involved early in the virtual world, where there is great information to be extracted when the right way is known to pick them up, however, crime is dissipating as fast technological advancement.

The UNODC acts in cooperation with the Pompidou Group – Cooperation Group to Combat Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking of Council of Europe. The work program 2015/2018, includes the identification of opportunities and challenges for drug policy from the internet.

The criminal law of many countries is changing the order to specifically criminalize the cybercrimes, or such acts are penalized by analogy
