Summary
Information is key in international arbitration and dispute resolution in general. This chapter describes how advocates can either obtain or create information through the use of online resources. In addition to traditional web searches, advocates can often find invaluable information in the so-called deep web, i.e. the part of the Internet that is not indexed by common search engines. Obtaining information through social media may create ethical issues advocates need to be aware of. Similarly, counsel play a role in advising their clients in creating appropriate online information before or during a dispute. The chapter finishes with an outlook on the Internet of Things and how this infrastructure of the information society is going to change the way disputes are being resolved.
