Contract-Wrapped Property, Danielle D'Onfro
Scholarship@WashULaw
For nearly two centuries, the law has allowed servitudes that “run with” real property while consistently refusing to permit servitudes attached to personal property. That is, owners of land can establish new, specific requirements for the property that bind all future owners—but owners of chattels cannot. In recent decades, however, firms have increasingly begun relying on contract provisions that purport to bind future owners of chattels. These developments began in the context of software licensing, but they have started to migrate to chattels not encumbered by software. Courts encountering these provisions have mostly missed their significance, focusing instead on questions …

The “Right to Repair” is a novel and non - traditional legal concept that addresses granting of the right to fix a damaged product, such as a car or smartphone, or to make any changes to such a device by the owner, the maker, or a third-party repair store. A growing global movement, the “right to repair” promotes consumers’ independence by allowing them to perform maintenance and repairs on their own equipment rather than being limited to the manufacturer’s service options. Countries throughout the world including United States and the United Kingdom have enacted laws by way of protecting citizens’ …

International Journal on Consumer Law and Practice
This paper examines the lack of a Right to Repair (R2R) legislation in India, particularly in the technology sector, and proposes key principles for an optimal Right to Repair Act based on competition economics and consumer choice. In the current scenario, electronic devices are often designed with planned obsolescence, leading to limited lifespans and encouraging a cycle of consumption and disposal, which negatively impacts the economy, society, and the environment. The global R2R campaign aims to balance societal rights and corporate interests by empowering consumers with the right to repair their devices.

In these circumstances, gatekeeper incumbent e-commerce platforms often set commercial conditions that have the effect of undermining other players and potential rivals within the ecosystem.

International Journal on Consumer Law and Practice
This essay examines the notions of consumer in various incarnations as Grahak and Upbhokta, ethical consumer. alienated consumer, and the involuntary consumer in the context of consumer law and justice (CLJ) and consumer education. In many senses, the idea of ‘consumer’ is a recent idea as a market subject both to necessary and unnecessary market evils and modern law enacts ‘consumer protection’ as reform and rationalization of the market leaving intact the mode of production or the structures of the economy. That tension is aggravated by the further questions as to whether consumer rights are human rights. And these may …

“Take Your Pictures, Leave Your (Digital) Footprints”: Increasing Privacy Protections For Children On Social Media, Kodie Mcginley
Golden Gate University Law Review
As the digital sphere becomes more prevalent in people’s lives, Congress has tried to keep up. First created in 1998, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) requires operators of websites directed at children to obtain consent from parents before collecting any personal information from children. COPPA also requires that operators take reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of any personal information collected about children. Although COPPA has helped regulate online spaces, its focus is on regulating websites that collect personal information directly from children. This focus leaves a gap in the law that ignores personal data shared on social …

Ambiguity And Exceptions: Dissecting Cftc V. Monex Credit Co. And The Commodity Exchange Act To Explain Actual Delivery, William Knotts
Mississippi College Law Review
“Leveraged trades” are transactions in which an investor borrows the capital to purchase or sell a commodity using the commodity itself as collateral. These transactions are vital to the health of commodities markets as they relate directly to market participation and liquidity, both essential components. A recent Ninth Circuit decision threatens these types of valuable transactions by adopting a narrow interpretation of a key exemption from the applicability of Commodity Exchange Act regulations. This Article will argue a broader interpretation is more consistent with the purpose behind the Commodity Exchange Act, recent Commodity Futures Trading Commission interpretations, and will better …

The press is a manifestation of the sovereignty of the Indonesian people. Unfortunately, the spirit of freedom of the press seems to be still experiencing shocks from various angles, one of which is the birth of Law number 27 of 2022 concerning Personal Data Protection (PDP Law). On the one hand, the presence of the PDP Law should be appreciated as a form of government effort to protect citizens' rights to privacy. However, unfortunately, several article provisions in the PDP Law still intersect with the Press, which are not a form of restriction in positive terms but have the potential …

The philosophy of law schools, such as positivism and naturalism, always have opposing arguments about moral and law separation. Positivism on one side, believes that morality is a non-law element that has to be strictly separated from the law, while on the other side, naturalism says moral can not be separated from the law and that moral has to become the basis of every law. However, the positivism idea is arduous to be implemented in the current situation as the legal product is constantly managed to conform with the moral values. The objectives of this paper are to study: (1) …

Auditing Overseas: How The United States Can Learn From Recent Financial Audit Reform In The United Kingdom, Daniel Damitio
Northwestern University Law Review
Financial auditing is one of the cornerstones of an effective capital market structure. When performed correctly, an independent financial audit provides investors with the security they need to effectively transact based on company disclosures. When this system fails, however, the results for investors and the economy as a whole can be devastating. In recognition of this danger, the market for financial auditing in the United States is regulated by a number of governmental and nongovernmental bodies charged with maintaining its health and effectiveness. But stakeholders within the U.S. market and government have criticized these regulators for failing to adequately respond …
