ONE PAGE NOTE: Crowdfunding related legislation in Greece - C PARISSIS 2013
This document provides an introduction to the Greek legislative environment for crowdfunding. It notes that Greece currently has no crowdfunding-specific legislation, so different rules apply to donation-based, rewards-based, equity-based, and lending-based crowdfunding models. General rules regarding online offerings also apply. The document outlines several common laws that apply to all crowdfunding models in Greece. It also discusses laws specific to each crowdfunding model, noting that donation-based crowdfunding faces significant operating burdens, rewards-based crowdfunding has relatively straightforward regulations, and equity-based crowdfunding is most regulated but allows minimal requirements for startups raising under 150,

PRESENTATION, Mongolian Legal environment overview, Stephen Tricks, partner...The Business Council of Mongolia
This document discusses Mongolia's legal environment and international trade. It covers Mongolia's Romano-Germanic legal tradition, its court system including levels of courts and training for judges. The development of business and international trade law is also examined, including key legislation and Mongolia's accession to the WTO. Main trade related laws are listed and foreign investment framework and trends are outlined. Finally, dispute resolution options are mentioned including the national arbitration court and international litigation under the New York Convention.Data Protection and "Intermediary" Responsibility: An Historical Perspective
These slides look historically at the tension between being in "control" of personal data and benefiting from certain freedom of expression shields when acting as an “intermediary” between an original content producer and an end user. It is show that these tensions emerged as early as the 1980s in European data protection, with both the French and certain Scandinavian Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) adopting a strict construction of law vis-à-vis provides of interactive services on the Minitel and various news archive and other public databases respectively. By the late 1990s when the e-Commerce Directive 2000/31/EC was being negotiated a similar tension re-emerged in the form of the data protection “exemption” (art. 1(5)(b)) and the more general ambiguity as to whether “active” as opposed to “passive” services could benefit from the “host” shield (art. 14) in any case. A partial solution to the latter question was found in the reasonable “duties of care” preamble inserted in the instrument as recital 48. These early debates cast a new perspective on more contemporary developments in EU data protection and e-Commerce case law including C-131/12 Google Spain, C-507/17 Google v CNIL and C-18/18 Glawischnig-Piesczek.
Overcoming some of ODR challenges
The document discusses challenges in online dispute resolution (ODR) and ways to overcome them. It outlines legal, technical, and cultural obstacles to ODR. These include differences in global legal systems, lack of online infrastructure in some countries, and absence of a universal culture. However, the document states that ODR challenges can be overcome through legislation providing opportunities for technology in dispute resolution. It provides examples of progress in the EU and other regions through laws and directives supporting ODR and electronic contracts. Recommendations include increasing education, support from governments and international organizations, and building confidence in ODR effectiveness.

Gvca internet jurisdiction_ssrn
This document discusses jurisdiction in international law as it relates to regulating the internet and the EU's "right to be forgotten" ruling. It makes the following key points:
1) Jurisdiction in international law is traditionally based on a state's territory and sovereignty, but modern economic law has challenged this through the "effects doctrine."
2) The EU's "right to be forgotten" ruling in Google Spain concerned private litigation between individuals and corporations, falling under private international law.
3) Orders to extend compliance with the ruling to Google's global domains raise questions about the territorial reach of the ruling under public and private international law.
4) The document aims to clarify concepts of jurisdiction in public and private

Conference "The Implementation of the UN Principles on Business and Human Rights in Private International Law"
( see http://www.isdc.ch/d2wfiles/document/4713/4018/0/Human%20Rights%20in%20PIL-%2010-10-2014.pdf at http://www.isdc.ch )
Abstract:
In the reports on Business and Human Rights by John Ruggie, "access to remedies cq access to justice" appears to be a key element.
Rules of Private International Law can be seen as key factors in achieving access to remedies cq access to justice: PIL rules act like hinges that allow doors - granting access to a specific court and to a specific legal norm - to be opened or to be kept closed; thus, as PIL deals with issues of international jurisdiction and applicable law, PIL rules are of paramount importance in determining access to a specific court and access to a specific legal norm.
In his Guiding Principles, Ruggie addresses the responsibility of States for issuing suitable legislation and ‘access to remedies’; it may be well argued that PIL legislation (rules on jurisdiction and applicable law) and the interpretation of this legislation should also be examined in this context.
In the presentation the focus will be on the hypothesis that plaintiffs want to bring an action before a EU Member State court. When focusing on this hypothesis, one can observe that at least some PIL-aspects are covered by rules of PIL of European origin (the regulation of some other aspects is still left to the EU- Member States themselves). To what extent do these rules allow or deny access to remedies cq access to justice?
In the presentation, some rules and issues of (mainly) European PIL - both jurisdiction and applicable law - that deserve attention from this perspective will be highlighted in an introductory way.

European Data Protection and Social Networking
These slides explore significant issues arising under data protection for both users and platforms as a result of the publication of third party personal data on such sites. Although the GDPR’s new wording of the household exemption could potentially exclude non-intrusive processing (e.g. sharing innocuous pictures taken in public), the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU) is increasingly insistent that users acquire responsibilities when the publish such data to an indeterminate number. In principle, most EU Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) accept this although others including the UK and Irish have been very resistant. Many users could therefore have weighty data protection obligations here, although if contributing to a collective public debate they may be covered by the journalistic/special expression derogation and in any case there is a need for a balance with freedom of expression. CJEU ʻjoint controllerʼ case law also points to social networking sites have their own duties here, a proposition which has been backed by Working Party, the UK DPA and the UK courts. Whilst the e-Commerce ʻhostʼ shield should significantly limit ex ante responsibility here, this must be tempered by the ʻduty of careʼ which is inherent in being a ʻcontrollerʼ under data protection. In sum, data protection in principle remains central to the regulation of ʻonline harmsʼ here although ensuring effective and well-balanced regulation in practice remains a formidable challenge.

Authors: Mauro Cislaghi | Domenico Pellegrini | Elisa Negroni.
Cooperation between judicial systems is a key factor for sustainable development, one of the EU’s major priorities. eGovernment plans and e-Justice initiatives supported by the European Commission and national governments create a very favourable background for the adoption of ICT standards in the area of cross-border judicial cooperation, both in Member States and in pre-Accession countries.
2010 - Towards new rules for the determination of the legislation applicable?
The document discusses potential revisions to the rules for determining applicable legislation for social security in the EU, including exceptions for activities in multiple countries, intra-group mobility, and posting. It proposes a new definition for "group of companies" and an exception to allow continued coverage under the legislation of the initial employer's state for successive short-term postings within the same group of companies across EU states.
Open Law Project Presentation
Legal reference works are too expensive, making the law inaccessible to most people. Open access to primary legal materials is a right, but charging high fees denies most of the population access to the law. The proposed solution is the Open Law Project, a community-driven effort to create an open access wiki of South African law, following the model of Wikipedia. It would use a federated approach and smart partnerships to make legal information freely available under open licensing.
CIOB Complex Projects Contract 2013: Construction Issues in the Middle East
This document discusses construction issues related to complex projects in the Middle East. It notes that while the CIOB Complex Projects Contract 2013 has international and common law roots, provisions allow for compliance with local laws and requirements. Special conditions can further modify the contract to suit local markets. The document also outlines considerations for local sponsors, contractors, and split EPC contracts, highlighting potential impacts of local content rules, joint venture requirements, religious holidays, and tax advantages. It concludes with discussions of contract administration expectations and managing disputes in international projects.
Making EU legislation more accessable - William Robinson
European leaders have called for clearer and simpler EU legislation that is better understood by the public. While efforts have been made, including guidelines for clear drafting and a joint practical guide, making EU laws accessible remains difficult due to having 23 official languages, autonomous legal concepts, and laws negotiated by 27 member states. It is important to improve accessibility given the EU's 500 million citizens and global impact. A package of measures is proposed, including specialized drafters, training, technology, vetting, and binding requirements for clarity in EU laws.

Cheeseman6e ch17
The document discusses e-contracts and licensing in business law. It covers the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA), which provides rules for computer information and software license contracts. The UCITA governs formation, performance, warranties, breach, and remedies for these types of contracts. It also discusses the internet, world wide web, e-mail, domain names, electronic signatures, and exclusive licenses. Licensing agreements transfer limited intellectual property rights from the licensor to the licensee. The parties can be liable for damages if they breach the obligations in these contracts.
Open legislation in Romania
This document discusses open access to legislation in Romania. It notes that while there are currently several public databases of legislation, access is limited and the data is not open. However, opening legislation as open data represents a high opportunity, as the raw data is already available electronically and could be easily opened at low cost. Open data has social, economic, and transparency benefits. The document outlines some projects underway in Romania to improve access to legislation, including the N-lex project by the Ministry of Justice to provide free electronic access to the national legislative database. In conclusion, while open access to Romanian legislation does not currently exist, legislation represents an extremely viable domain for open data.

Cloud Services and the "Marco Civil"
The document discusses Brazil's Marco Civil law and its implications for cloud services. It provides background on the development of Marco Civil from 2009-2014 through a civil society process. Key points of Marco Civil include establishing principles of network neutrality, data protection, and non-liability of intermediaries. For cloud services, the law specifies requirements for data storage timeframes, access protocols, and security standards. Overall, Marco Civil aims to balance an open internet with basic privacy protections.
I walden
The document discusses building a legal framework for e-commerce and outlines several key issues and approaches. It notes fundamental changes from internet technologies, questions around identity and location, and whether law acts as an enabler or constraint. It also discusses different forms of regulation like non-discrimination laws, emerging customs, censorship approaches, and precedents from international space and sea laws. International aspects around applicable laws, comparative advantage, and mutual recognition are examined.
Social security coverage
This document summarizes the findings of an analytical study on social security coverage of non-active persons moving to another EU Member State. The study was conducted through a fact-finding questionnaire to Member States. It found uncertainty around definitions, concerns about social tourism and increased claims. Current EU law leaves room for different interpretations around the relationship between regulations. Possible future routes discussed are clarification through safeguarding clauses, reconciliation through flexible waiting periods and cost compensation, or a stronger focus on assessing genuine residence.

Floundering towards EU information law
The document discusses several issues related to EU information law, including:
1) Liability exemptions for intermediaries under the E-Commerce Directive and exceptions for temporary reproduction under the Copyright Directive.
2) Constitutional concerns around the proportionality and oversight of "three strikes" policies that cut off internet access for repeat copyright infringers.
3) The challenges of regulating both individuals and intermediaries as "data controllers" under the Data Protection Directive.
4) Debates around techniques like website blocking to reduce access to child abuse images and ensuring constitutional values like privacy are considered.
Defences to home repossession publication
This document summarizes various legal defenses that can be used against home repossession in Ireland. It discusses defenses based on unfair contract terms, the right to cancel distance and off-premises contracts, proportionality and the right to a home, using data protection requests, and issues with tracker mortgages. Specifically, it outlines how the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations allow courts to examine contract terms for fairness and strike out unfair terms. It also discusses a consumer's right to cancel a contract within 7 days under distance and off-premises contract laws. When considering proportionality of repossession, it notes courts examine factors like arrears level and a person's right to adequate housing. The document concludes by
Jurisdictional Issues In Internet Disputes
This document discusses various jurisdictional issues that arise in internet disputes. It covers different approaches taken by courts around the world in determining jurisdiction for online disputes. Issues around applicable law and enforcing foreign judgments are also examined. Several suggestions are proposed to address jurisdictional uncertainty for cross-border internet transactions, including developing uniform internet laws or alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, but each approach faces challenges in implementation.

Open data has social, economic, and transparency benefits. The document outlines some projects underway in Romania to improve access to legislation, including the N-lex project by the Ministry of Justice to provide free electronic access to the national legislative database. In conclusion, while open access to Romanian legislation does not currently exist, legislation represents an extremely viable domain for open data.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
