Crypto-Collateral, Kevin V. Tu Jan 2018

Crypto-Collateral, Kevin V. Tu

SMU Science and Technology Law Review

The use of cryptocurrency has permeated new industries. As it does so, the need to confront the broader commercial law implications of cryptocurrency, particularly the applicability of the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.), becomes more pronounced. For example, creditors and debtors increasingly use cryptocurrency as collateral. But Article 9 of the U.C.C. does not expressly mention cryptocurrency. Fortunately, Article 9 is flexible enough to accommodate the collateralization of cryptocurrency within its

currently defined collateral types. The foregoing, notwithstanding Article 9, could be amended to improve the functionality of Article 9 for those to engage in secured transactions with crypto-collateral. Rather than …

Gaming The Law: Adolescents And The Harmful Digital Communication Act—Employing An Educational Approach, Nachshon Goltz, Giulia Dondoli Jan 2018

Gaming The Law: Adolescents And The Harmful Digital Communication Act—Employing An Educational Approach, Nachshon Goltz, Giulia Dondoli

SMU Science and Technology Law Review

In 2015, the Parliament of New Zealand enacted the Harmful Digital Communication Act (HDCA) with the aim of eliminating harm caused by digital communications. After a year of HDCA’s partial enforcement, a relatively large number of cases under Section 22, which concerns harm caused by posting digital communication, have been filed. Under this section, anyone over the age of fourteen can potentially face sanctions, and the first person to be convicted under the Act was an eighteen-year-old. This article highlights the legal rights and obligations that adolescents need be aware of. It also presents an online game, “Privacy Games” at …

The Privacy, Probability, And Political Pitfalls Of Universal Dna Collection, Meghan J. Ryan Jan 2017

The Privacy, Probability, And Political Pitfalls Of Universal Dna Collection, Meghan J. Ryan

SMU Science and Technology Law Review

Watson and Crick’s discovery of the structure of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) in 1953 launched a truth-finding mission not only in science but also in the law. Just thirty years later–after the science had evolved–DNA evidence was being introduced in criminal courts. Today, DNA evidence is heavily relied on in criminal and related cases. It is routinely introduced in murder and rape cases as evidence of guilt; DNA databases have grown as even arrestees have been required to surrender DNA samples; and this evidence has been used to exonerate hundreds of convicted individuals. DNA evidence is generally revered as the “gold …

Trade Secrets, Safe Harbors, And International Trade, W. Keith Robinson Jan 2017

Trade Secrets, Safe Harbors, And International Trade, W. Keith Robinson

SMU Science and Technology Law Review

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is a proposed trade agreement that establishes terms for trade and business between the United States and eleven Pacific Rim nations. The United States has withdrawn from the TPP, but interest in the agreement remains because some of its provisions serve as a template for future international trade deals. This article focuses on the TPP provisions concerning trade secrets and Internet Service Provider (ISP) Safe Harbors. While both provisions mirror U.S. law, they do lack certain "safeguards." Commentators have observed that the absence of these safeguards unfairly favor the interests of large corporations and rights holders …
