Network Neutrality: Laissez Faire Approach Or Not?, Rebecca Wong Dr
Network Neutrality: Laissez Faire Approach Or Not?, Rebecca Wong Dr
Dr Rebecca Wong
The paper discusses the topical subject of network neutrality, from a US and European legal perspective. Whilst acknowledging the plethora of literature on network neutrality, it argues that regulation in favour of network neutrality should not be confined with the US/European borders but that network neutrality should be addressed from a global perspective through the OECD/WTO. The article will begin by defining network neutrality, before discussing the technology underpinning network neutrality. It will compare the different legal approaches adopted by Europe and the US to the regulation of network neutrality. In Europe, there is an existing electronic communications regulatory framework, …

Rethinking Broadband Internet Access, Daniel F. Spulber, Christopher S. Yoo
All Faculty Scholarship
The emergence of broadband Internet technologies, such as cable modem and digital subscriber line (DSL) systems, has reopened debates over how the Internet should be regulated. Advocates of network neutrality and open access to cable modem systems have proposed extending the regulatory regime developed to govern conventional telephone and narrowband Internet service to broadband. A critical analysis of the rationales traditionally invoked to justify the regulation of telecommunications networks--such as natural monopoly, network economic effects, vertical exclusion, and the dangers of ruinous competition--reveals that those rationales depend on empirical and theoretical preconditions that do not apply to broadband. In addition, …

What Is 'Private' Data?, Karen Mccullagh
Karen McCullagh
The development of a frontier-free Internal Market and of the so-called 'information society' have resulted in an increase in the flow of personal data between EU Member States. To remove potential obstacles to such transfers data protection legislation was introduced. One of the underpinning principles of Directive 95/46/EC is the protection of privacy. Yet, the legislation does not provide a conclusive understanding of the terms ‘privacy’ or ‘private’ data. Rather, privacy protection is to be achieved through the regulation of the conditions under which personal data may be processed. An assessment of whether, 10 years after the enactment of the …
On Communication, John Greenman
On Communication, John Greenman
Michigan Law Review
Everybody knows that communication is important, but nobody knows how to define it. The best scholars refer to it. Free-speech law protects it. But no one-no scholar or judge-has successfully captured it. Few have even tried. This is the first article to define communication under the law. In it, I explain why some activities-music, abstract painting, and parading-are considered communicative under the First Amendment, while others-sex, drugs, and subliminal advertising-are not. I argue that the existing theories of communication, which hold that communicative behaviors are expressive or convey ideas, fail to explain what is going on in free-speech cases. Instead, …
