In the twelve years since the publication of the paper “Law
and Borders – The Rise of Law in Cyberspace” by David G. Post and David
Johnson, law makers and courts in the US and EU have had to address
numerous new questions arising from new information technologies and online
activities. What have we learned applying existing legal principles to new
Internet phenomena? What new principles have been established and what new
concepts underlie these principles? What role will new regulatory models and
regimes play in the future.
The Transatlantic Technology Law Forum (TTLF)
[http://ttlf.stanford.edu] and the Freeman Spogli Institute for International
Studies (FSI) [http://fsi.stanford.edu] will host the first Transatlantic
Information Law Symposium on June 14, 2008 at Stanford Law School. The goal of
the symposium is to bring together the leading experts from the US and EU to
discuss current issues in information law and to promote mutual understanding of
the different approaches.
The symposium will address the following topics:
Constitutional Rights and IT in the EU
The Right to Privacy in IT Systems in EU Law
The Right to Privacy in IT Systems in US Law
Freedom of Speech and the Internet in US Law
Network Neutrality in US Law
Property vs. Contract to Govern Online Behavior under US Law
Property vs. Contract to Govern Online Behavior under EU Law
The Future of Regulating Cyberspace - Open Discussion
