Description

The worlds of today and tomorrow rely upon open networks connecting distant participants exchanging personal and commercial information. Bringing some certainty to this very dynamic environment are the legal foundations supporting the free flow of information over the Internet. New lawyers, lawyers new to information and Internet law, lawyers updating their knowledge on the latest statutes and cases, and lawyers desiring a U.S. - EU comparative legal perspective are among the audiences for this single resource on information and Internet law. This book, used at law schools in the U.S. and Europe, is current to July 2020 and serves as volume 1 of a two-volume set. It provides insight by looking at current statutes, regulations, and directives in the United States and Europe. It discusses and identifies issues raised by the latest U.S. and EU cases on protection of information and use of the Internet, starting with a risk and standards-based approach to this area of law. The areas of information law addressed are: privacy, information security, and data protection law, unlawful data disclosures through cybercrime and data breach, and lawful data disclosures related to messaging and surveillance. The areas of Internet law addressed are: access, jurisdiction, speech, intermediary liability, intellectual property, and e-commerce through electronic and website agreements. Bringing a unique perspective to explain a complex topic, the author has written numerous books on legal privacy and technology and legal history, lectures and writes extensively on the latest developments in technology law, and has long lived and worked in both of these jurisdictions. This book is the result of those many years of experience and insight.
