Protecting The Homeland By Exemption: Why The Critical Infrastructure Information Act Of 2002 Will Degrade The Freedom Of Information Act, Brett Stohs

Duke Law & Technology Review

To protect against "cyberterror," the House version of the Homeland Security Act exempts information related to the nation's critical infrastructure from the Freedom of Information Act disclosure requirements. The proposed exemption unnecessarily threatens public access to vital information about health and safety information; information the Freedom of Information Act was designed to guarantee.

Sneak And Peak Search Warrants, Donald E. Wilkes Jr.

Popular Media

In his recent article "Taking Liberty with Freedom," author Richard P. Moore reminds us that the USA Patriot Act, signed by President Bush last Oct. 26 in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, "gives the government the kind of sweeping powers of arrest, detention, surveillance, investigation, deportation, and search and seizure that ... assault ... our most basic freedoms."

I want to examine here a single section of the USA Patriot Act--section 213, definitely one of the most sinister provisions of this monstrous statute.

New “Unbundling” Rules: Will The Fcc Finally Open Up Cable Broadband?, Sarah North

Duke Law & Technology Review

This iBrief discusses a recent Court of Appeals decision remanding FCC rules on the "unbundling" of Internet services by telephone exchange carriers. These rules ordered many Internet service providers to share their equipment with competitors, so that consumers could choose their providers instead of having to accept all services from the company who installed the physical Internet connection. Cable Internet providers are not included in these rules. This iBrief predicts that cable broadband operators will soon be governed by the same "unbundling" provisions as other ISPs.

Expanded Horizons: Memory, Memorials And Manhattan's Living Skyline, Kenneth Anderson

Book Reviews

Book Review of James Sanders, Celluloid Skyline: New York and the Movies Some cities are characterized by their monuments. Paris is one, and Washington another. Unsurprisingly, these are also cities characterized by being the seat of government, cities of the State, urban spaces delineated by ministries, bureaucracies, courts of law, the architecture of administrative apparatus, devoted to governing in the present in part by mythologizing, monumentalizing, the past. The myth-making need not be dictatorial, let alone totalitarian or Stalinist, in its architectural effect. Nor is it necessary that in order for monuments to be enjoyed aesthetically, the politics and ideologies …

Genetic Testing In The Workplace: The Employer’S Coin Toss, Samantha French

Duke Law & Technology Review

A toss of the coin by the modern-day employer reveals two options regarding genetic testing in the workplace. The employer may choose to take advantage of increasingly precise, available, and affordable genetic testing in order to ascertain the genetic characteristics - and deficiencies - of its employees. This outcome exposes the employer to a vast array of potential litigation and liability relating to the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Fourth Amendment, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and state legislation designed to protect genetic privacy. Alternatively, the employer may neglect to indulge in this trend of genetic testing and …

Ajuri V. Idf Commander In West Bank, Aharon Barak, Shlomo Levin, Theodor Or, Eliahu Mazza, Mishael Cheshin, Tova Strasberg-Cohen, Dalia Dorner, Dorit Beinisch, Jacob Turkel

Translated Opinions

Facts: The IDF Commander in Judaea and Samaria made orders requiring three residents of Judaea and Samaria to live, for the next two years, in the Gaza Strip. The orders were approved by the Appeals Board. The three residents of Judaea and Samaria petitioned the High Court of Justice against the orders.

The petitioners argued that the orders were contrary to international law. In particular the petitioners argued that Judaea and Samaria should be regarded as a different belligerent occupation from the one in the Gaza Strip, and therefore the orders amounted to a deportation from one territory to another, …
