Toward A Textualist Paradigm For Interpreting Emoticons, John Ehrett
Toward A Textualist Paradigm For Interpreting Emoticons, John Ehrett
John Ehrett
This Essay evaluates the dimensions of courts’ current interpretive dilemma, and subsequently sketches a possible framework for extending traditional statutory interpretation principles into this new domain. Throughout the analysis, the Essay describes the process of attaching cognizable linguistic referents to emoticons and emojis throughout as symbolical reification, and proposes a normative way forward for those tasked with deriving meaning from emoji-laden communications.
Privacy, Copyright, And Letters, Jeffrey Harrison
Privacy, Copyright, And Letters, Jeffrey Harrison
Jeffrey L Harrison
The focus of this Essay is the privacy of letters – the written manifestations of thoughts, intents, and the recollections of facts directed to a person or a narrowly defined audience. The importance of this privacy is captured in the novel Atonement by Ian McEwan and in the film based on the novel. The fulcrum from which the action springs is a letter that is read by someone to whom it was not addressed. The result is literally life-changing, even disastrous for a number of characters. One person dies, two people seemingly meant for each other are torn apart and …

Rethink Possible When It Comes To Wireless Data Plans, Daniel Lyons
Daniel Lyons
From the introduction: The blogosphere has been abuzz this week with AT&T's introduction of a new "sponsored data" service. Under this service, Internet content providers such as Google or Yahoo could agree to pay for the data that the customer would otherwise incur when accessing the provider's services on his or her mobile device. This allows the customer to consume sponsored content without it counting against the customer's monthly data limit.

Internet Pricing: The Next Policy Frontier, Daniel Lyons
Internet Pricing: The Next Policy Frontier, Daniel Lyons
Daniel Lyons
In the past few years, broadband providers have begun shifting toward tiered service plans (sometimes known as usage-based pricing) that offer customers a fixed amount of data each month for a fee. On average, less than 2 percent of users exceed the most commonly-used tier of 300 GB; nearly 80 percent of consumers never exceed even 50 GB per month. Nevertheless, some critics such as Public Knowledge and the New America Foundation are concerned that this trend may bring higher prices and reduced service. Most recently, NAF analyst Benjamin Lennett asked whether tiered service plans are a plot by cable …

Virtual Takings: The Coming Fifth Amendment Challenge To Net Neutrality Regulation, Daniel Lyons
Virtual Takings: The Coming Fifth Amendment Challenge To Net Neutrality Regulation, Daniel Lyons
Daniel Lyons
“Net neutrality” refers to the principle that broadband providers should not limit the content and applications available over the Internet. Long a rallying cry of techies and academics, it has become one of the central pillars of the Obama Administration’s telecommunications policy. The Federal Communications Commission’s efforts to regulate the “onramp to the Internet” have attracted significant attention from the telecommunications industry and the academic community, which have debated whether the proposed restrictions violate broadband providers’ First Amendment rights. But there is an additional constitutional implication of net neutrality that has not yet been sufficiently addressed in the scholarly literature: …

Tethering The Administrative State: The Case Against Chevron Deference For Fcc Jurisdictional Claims, Daniel Lyons
Daniel Lyons
Like many other agencies, the Federal Communications Commission has seen significant regulatory growth under President Obama. But unlike health care, financial reform, and other areas, this growth has come without statutory guidance from Congress. The FCC’s assertion of jurisdiction over broadband service is reminiscent of its earlier attempts to regulate cable and to deregulate telephone service, efforts that courts have viewed skeptically in the absence of specific statutory authorization. But this skepticism is in tension with Chevron, which grants agencies substantial deference to interpret ambiguities in the statutes that they administer. This article argues that Chevron deference should not extend …

Concurring In Part & Concurring In The Confusion, Sonja West
Sonja R. West
When a federal appellate court decided last year that two reporters must either reveal their confidential sources to a grand jury or face jail time, the court did not hesitate in relying on the majority opinion in the Supreme Court's sole comment on the reporter's privilege--Branzburg v. Hayes. "The Highest Court has spoken and never revisited the question. Without doubt, that is the end of the matter," Judge Sentelle wrote for the three-judge panel on the Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. By this declaration, the court dismissed with a wave of its judicial hand the arguments …

Privacy Concern In Google Voice Call Recording, Michael Katz, James Tuthill
Michael Katz
The Federal Communications Commission, taking note of AT&T's complaint, has written to Google with questions about its call blocking. But the implications for our privacy of software-managed call services like Google Voice are a much greater threat to consumers, and that's where the FCC should direct its energy - immediately.
A Comment On James Grimmelmann’S Saving Facebook, Susan Freiwald
A Comment On James Grimmelmann’S Saving Facebook, Susan Freiwald
Susan Freiwald
This paper comments on Professor James Grimmelmann’s article Saving Facebook (94 Iowa L. Rev. 1137 (2009) http://http://works.bepress.com/james_grimmelmann/20). provides a useful analysis of the privacy debates surrounding this social networking web site. Grimmelmann provides valuable sociological and psychological material for future legislators to draw on in considering legislative control of Facebook and similar sites. Grimmelmann uses Facebook to provide concrete examples of privacy concerns to build on the more general framework provided by the works of Daniel Solove. The comment does take exception to Grimmelmann’s analysis in several points. Chief among these is Grinnlemann’s lack of evidence in support of his …
