Catalyzing Privacy Law, Anupam Chander, Margot E. Kaminski, William Mcgeveran
Catalyzing Privacy Law, Anupam Chander, Margot E. Kaminski, William Mcgeveran
Publications
The United States famously lacks a comprehensive federal data privacy law. In the past year, however, over half the states have proposed broad privacy bills or have established task forces to propose possible privacy legislation. Meanwhile, congressional committees are holding hearings on multiple privacy bills. What is catalyzing this legislative momentum? Some believe that Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which came into force in 2018, is the driving factor. But with the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) which took effect in January 2020, California has emerged as an alternate contender in the race to set the new standard for …

Gdpr And The Importance Of Data To Ai Startups, James Bessen, Stephen Michael Impink, Lydia Reichensperger, Robert Seamans
Faculty Scholarship
What is the impact of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regime (“GDPR”) and data regulation on AI startups? How important is data to AI product development? We study these questions using unique survey data of commercial AI startups. AI startups rely on data for their product development. Given the scale and scope of their business models, these startups are particularly susceptible to policy changes impacting data collection, storage and use. We find that training data and frequent model refreshes are particularly important for AI startups that rely on neural nets and ensemble learning algorithms. We also find that firms …

The Pond Betwixt: Differences In The U.S.-Eu Data Protection/Safe Harbor Negotiation, Richard J. Peltz-Steele
Faculty Publications
This article analyzes the differing perspectives that animate US and EU conceptions of privacy in the context of data protection. It begins by briefly reviewing the two continental approaches to data protection and then explains how the two approaches arise in a context of disparate cultural traditions with respect to the role of law in society. In light of those disparities, Underpinning contemporary data protection regulation is the normative value that both US and EU societies place on personal privacy. Both cultures attribute modern privacy to the famous Warren-Brandeis article in 1890, outlining a "right to be let alone." But …

Cloud Computing E Protezione Dei Dati Nel Web 3.0 (Cloud Computing And Data Protection In The Web 3.0), Guido Noto La Diega
Guido Noto La Diega
‘Cloud computing’ in simplified terms can be understood as the storing, processing and use of data on remotely located computers accessed over the internet. This means that users can command almost unlimited computing power on demand, that they do not have to make major capital investments to fulfil their needs and that they can get to their data from anywhere with an internet connection (COM(2012) 529 final, unleashing the potential of cloud computing in Europe). The essay focuses on the problems of privacy and data security in european law and italian law from the perspective of cloud computing. Italian Abstract: …

European Union Data Privacy Law Developments, W. Gregory Voss
W. Gregory Voss
This article explores recent developments in European Union data privacy and data protection law, through an analysis of European Union advisory guidance, independent administrative agency enforcement action, case law, and legislative reform in the areas of digital technologies, the internet, telecommunications and personal data. In the first case, Article 29 Working Party guidance on anonymization techniques – so important in the field of big data – is discussed and distinguished from pseudonymization. Next, Google privacy policy enforcement action by various EU Member State data protection agencies (inter alia, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain) is chronicled, with lessons being …

In The Middle: Creating A Middle Road Between U.S. And Eu Data Protection Policies, Carolyn Hoang
Journal of the National Association of Administrative Law Judiciary
The first section of this paper examines the historical differences that have led to the American approach to privacy and the European approach to privacy. The second section will examine the current U.S. model, and the third section will examine the EU model. Next, the fourth section will compare and contrast the two models. Finally, the last section will argue that the U.S. should have a regulatory agency and describe how that should look and run.

Returning To A Principled Basis For Data Protection, Gus Hosein
Returning To A Principled Basis For Data Protection, Gus Hosein
Chicago-Kent Law Review
Society must remain conscious of both pragmatic and principle-based rationales for information security rules. The identity card debate in the United Kingdom provides an example of exactly why a governmental information security approach that is sensitive to civil liberties would be the best approach to data protection. In contrast, we should be cautious of a balancing test that places security in parity with civil liberties and, therefore, erroneously allows pragmatism to triumph over principle.
Privacy And Telecommunications, Fred H. Cate
Privacy And Telecommunications, Fred H. Cate
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article explores the differences in privacy protection between the European Union and the United States, and examines the emerging conflict over data protection. Professor Cate analyzes the European data protection Directive, with particular emphasis on the Directive's extraterritorial provisions. He then examines privacy protection under United States laws and the extent to which that protection satisfies the requirements of the Directive. Finally, Professor Cate focuses on privacy issues involved in telecommunications, an area significantly regulated by United States and European laws, and therefore one area in which some commonality among privacy protection might be anticipated. Even in this highly …
