those rights to include purchased goods outside the United Kingdom or in cyberspace.

This decision can make issuers liable for credit card purchases over the internet from fraudulent foreign suppliers who failed to deliver. From their perspective, the original ruling had been expected to add ??1billion in profits. However, now they're more accountable, not only to the cardholder, but to the transaction itself.
