Beauty Shouldn’T Cause Pain: A Makeover Proposal For The Fda’S Cosmetics Regulation, Lauren Jacobs
Beauty Shouldn’T Cause Pain: A Makeover Proposal For The Fda’S Cosmetics Regulation, Lauren Jacobs
Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary
The American cosmetics industry is not required by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to conduct pre-market safety assessments of cosmetics. The FDA only reviews personal care products when people voluntarily report problems. Further, companies continue to test animals for cosmetics, despite the FDA’s recommendation that manufacturers seek more humane and accurate testing. Although the FDA does not require animal testing for product safety or premarket approval, the United States is one of the largest users of laboratory animals for product testing. There are two pending pieces of legislation, which if passed would be the first acts of cosmetic regulation …
Net Neutrality And The European Union’S Copyright Directive For The Digital Single Market, Nathan Guzé
Net Neutrality And The European Union’S Copyright Directive For The Digital Single Market, Nathan Guzé
Loyola of Los Angeles International and Comparative Law Review
The European Union’s Copyright Directive for the Digital Single Market should cause concern for net neutrality advocates. This article casts a critical gaze at Article 17 (previously Article 13) of this new Directive. It chronicles the Directive’s life: starting as a reaction to the perceived inadequate copyright protections provided by the previous Information Society Copyright Directive through to its then-present status circa May 2019. Next, net neutrality is defined, and its benefits and detriments are weighed to ultimately determine the policy is desirable. Article 17’s call for eliminating safe-harbor provisions for content hosts and its call for content filters signal …

Identities Lost: Enacting Federal Law Mandating Disclosure & Notice After A Data Security Breach, John Ogle
Identities Lost: Enacting Federal Law Mandating Disclosure & Notice After A Data Security Breach, John Ogle
Arkansas Law Review
Identity theft is real, it’s here, and consumers need protection. Over the past five years hackers have stolen billions of consumers’ sensitive information like social security numbers, addresses, and bank routing numbers from companies that have neglected their security measures. Most of the time these security breaches are easily preventable. Companies sometimes wait weeks, months, or even years to inform the customers whose information was stolen because there is no federal law that requires disclosure. As of 2018, all 50 states have adopted security breach notification laws that require companies to inform consumers that their information may have been stolen …
The [Un]Fair Debt Collection Practices Act: A Critique Of Henson V. Santander, Monica Paladini
The [Un]Fair Debt Collection Practices Act: A Critique Of Henson V. Santander, Monica Paladini
Pepperdine Law Review
Congress was clear about its purposes and motivations behind enacting the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act of 1977. Namely, it set out to protect consumers from abusive debt collectors and to protect ethical debt collectors from being competitively disadvantaged by those who employ abusive tactics. Although Congress gave much time and effort to crafting the definition of “debt collectors” at the time of the Act’s passage, changes in the debt collection industry over the last four decades have greatly impacted the scope and reach of the FDCPA. Specifically, the advent and rise of debt purchasing have introduced an entirely new …

Vehicle Rental Laws: Road Blocks To Evolving Mobility Models?, Wesley D. Hurst, Leslie J. Pujo
Vehicle Rental Laws: Road Blocks To Evolving Mobility Models?, Wesley D. Hurst, Leslie J. Pujo
Journal of Law and Mobility
The laws and regulations governing mobility are inconsistent and antiquated and should be modernized to encourage innovation as we prepare for an autonomous car future. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) has concluded that Autonomous Vehicles, or Highly Automated Vehicles (“HAVs”) may “prove to be the greatest personal transportation revolution since the popularization of the personal automobile nearly a century ago.” Preparation for a HAV world is underway as the mobility industry evolves and transforms itself at a remarkable pace. New mobility platforms are becoming more convenient, more automated and more data driven—all of which will facilitate the evolution …
