like i said before, the "internet" is a broad subject. all those agencies have a job to do when it comes to a cybercrime....especially when it threatens our nations security. there are many answers to this question; it depends on the instance of the current situation!..:D
  • Anonymous . 3+ yrs. ago
well the "internet" is a broad example, but if we are talking about a source originating and/or found on US soil, its original jurisdiction will go to the FBI, not the NSA or CSS, because the NSA and CSS primarily work with terrorist attacks or cryptological threats and the conflict via the "internet" could just be website or blog that has issue in a domestic incident, thus making it FBI jurisdiction, though it can also lead to CSS or NSA jurisdiction as well. Though anything that has to do with our nations security, it is the job of all 3 agencies to work together.

The FBI handles law enforcement within the country. That being said it would be somewhat impractical for the CIA to police the Internet because their area of policing is too big to handle. Being "in charge" of the internet gives the FBI access to data like IP addresses to track down domestic threats. The NSA might play some part in the Internet but more in a background way, whereas the FBI actually enforces the Internet.
