2009 John Marshall Law School International Moot Court Competition In Information Technology And Privacy Law: Brief For The Respondent, 27 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 169 (2009), Michael Jones, Stuart Ladner, Sabrina Stone

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT: Nevilson has not raised a genuine issue of material fact on his intrusion upon seclusion claim. First, Nevilson cannot show Marshoogle intentionally invaded Nevilson’s privacy. When Marshoogle captured the images for its Marshall Avenue Perspective feature, no one physically entered Nevilson’s property or used sensory enhancements or telephoto lenses to pry into his private space. Second, Marshoogle’s actions were not highly offensive to a reasonable person because the photographs were not captured in an effort to exploit or defame Nevilson, but rather were captured in an effort to produce a free and effective virtual map for …

Yes, I Destroyed The Evidence - Sue Me? Intentional Spoliation Of Evidence In Illinois, 27 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 235 (2009), Michael A. Zuckerman

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

Many Illinois litigators have encountered spoliation of evidence, which is the loss, destruction, or alteration of evidence. Examples of spoliation are seemingly endless and include the failure to preserve the scene of a train derailment, the accidental destruction of evidence on a lawyer’s desk by a janitor, the loss of a heater that exploded, the removal of wires from a car that caught on fire, the loss and alteration of medical equipment, and the intentional erasing of a computer image relevant to a copyright lawsuit. To combat spoliation, Illinois and many other states have developed common law and statutory methods …

Extending The Exclusionary Rule: Enforcing Data Quality In National Security Databases And Watch Lists, 27 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 257 (2009), Christine M. Whalley

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

Since its inception, the exclusionary rule has been aimed at deterring misconduct by police officers and law enforcement agents. It is widely believed to deter deliberate, reckless, grossly, or systemic negligent conduct by law enforcement agents. Increased reliance by law enforcement agencies and their agents on expansive, interconnected information suggests that the exclusionary rule needs to be expanded beyond just the acts of the officers and agents and be applied to the agency itself where there is evidence that poor data quality standards produced the reckless or negligent conduct. When so much of our liberty rests on the quality of …

The Computer Fraud And Abuse Act: Reassessing The Damage Requirement, 27 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 279 (2009), Matthew Andris

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law

This comment explores whether a civil plaintiff needs to claim actual damage to a protected computer to recover against a defendant under the CFAA. Several courts have noted that there is little case law regarding damages, and the case law that exists does not help define the reach of damages. Currently, courts are split as to whether a computer system needs to have actual physical damage in order for recovery under the CFAA. Additionally, courts have not adequately addressed how to assess damages, including whether damages may be aggregated across multiple computer systems. The Third, Fifth, and Ninth Circuit Courts …

Social Networking And Blogging: The New Legal Frontier, 9 J. Marshall Rev. Intell. Prop. L. 500 (2009), Robert Newman, Liisa Thomas

UIC Review of Intellectual Property Law

Improvements in communication technology have effectively made the world a smaller place. As businesses attempt to exploit these new technological improvements to better communicate their messages to their clients, these same improvements continue to raise new and difficult legal issues related to fair trade practices, privacy, and freedom of speech. This article identifies current legal developments related to advertising in the online world and analyzes the actions taken to resolve these new and difficult legal issues within the framework of United States federal and state law and private industry-specific self-governance.

Privacy By Deletion: The Need For A Global Data Deletion Principle, Benjamin J. Keele

Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies

With global personal information flows increasing, efforts have been made to develop principles to standardize data protection regulations. However, no set of principles has yet achieved universal adoption. This note proposes a principle mandating that personal data be securely destroyed when it is no longer necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. Including a data deletion principle in future data protection standards will increase respect for individual autonomy and decrease the risk of abuse of personal data. Though data deletion is already practiced by many data controllers, including it in legal data protection mandates will further the goal …

The Ethics Of E-Mail, Thomas E. Spahn

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

In many ways, communicating by e-mail and other forms of electronic transmission reflects a fundamentally different way of human interaction. Historians eventually will put this in perspective, but one could easily conclude that e-mails are essentially a “third way” for people to communicate.

Dissonant Paradigms And Unintended Consequences: Can (And Should) The Law Save Us From Technology?, Donald Labriola

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

Technologies like digital audio, the Internet, and broadband communications spur economic growth and foster new patterns of commerce and social interaction. But they also spawn disruptive innovations that force established industries to forge novel responses or risk falling by the wayside. The horse-and-buggy industry, vaudeville, and video-rental stores are but a few examples of thriving markets that found themselves on the scrap heap of obsolescence because they failed to react quickly to the devastating effects of new technology.

“Medical” Monitoring For Non-Medical Harms: Evaluating The Reasonable Necessity Of Measures To Avoid Identity Fraud After A Data Breach, James Graves

Richmond Journal of Law & Technology

In July 2005, “reformed” hacker Albert Gonzalez noticed an insecure wireless network at a Marshalls department store in Miami. After exploiting the vulnerability, Gonzalez and his accomplices installed programs that captured credit card numbers. They stored the credit card numbers on servers in Latvia and Ukraine, created ATM cards using some of the numbers, and used those cards to withdraw hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash. Fifteen months later, Marshalls’ parent company, TJX, announced that forty-five million of its customers’ credit card numbers had been exposed to the thieves.

Code, Crash, And Open Source: The Outsourcing Of Financial Regulation To Risk Models And The Global Financial Crisis, Erik F. Gerding

Publications

The widespread use of computer-based risk models in the financial industry during the last two decades enabled the marketing of more complex financial products to consumers, the growth of securitization and derivatives, and the development of sophisticated risk-management strategies by financial institutions. Over this same period, regulators increasingly delegated or outsourced vast responsibility for regulating risk in both consumer finance and financial markets to these privately owned industry models. Proprietary risk models of financial institutions thus came to serve as a "new financial code" that regulated transfers of risk among consumers, financial institutions, and investors.

The spectacular failure of financial-industry …
