Amazon Tax Wars
A Colorado state law could significantly impact e-commerce by requiring out-of-state retailers to collect and remit sales tax. The law is aimed at requiring large online retailers like Amazon to collect sales tax as brick-and-mortar stores already do. Other states have proposed or passed similar laws, while federal legislation on the issue has stalled. The law's backers argue it helps level the playing field for local businesses, while opponents say it imposes new burdens on e-tailers.

Saying no to the government
Companies have significant freedom to protect user privacy from government access while still complying with the law. They can implement technical policies like minimal data retention, transport encryption, and storage encryption without handling user encryption keys. They can also adopt legal policies like refusing voluntary disclosure, charging the government reasonable costs, applying the Theofel standard nationwide, publishing statistics on government requests, and donating any funds received to charity. For example, some companies do not log IP addresses or connection information, while encrypted email and cloud storage providers only know the encryption keys. This allows firms to say no to government overreach while avoiding legal liability and bad publicity.

ILC Cyber Report - June 2018
The Supreme Court approved online sales taxes and a dangerous email bill advanced in California. The Supreme Court ruled states can collect sales tax from online retailers without a physical presence. A bill in California seeks to greatly expand the state's commercial email law and impose liability, though it was amended due to opposition. The European Union passed measures that could require platforms to pay for links to content and use automatic filtering, raising censorship concerns.
Gagnier's Portion of TechWeek Chicago Presentation
This document discusses various legal issues related to the use of social data, including copyright, right of publicity, trademarks, defamation, content regulation, marketing, workplace issues, and due diligence.

It provides an overview of key areas of law and encourages learning the "rules of the road" to avoid these risks when creating, commercializing, and enforcing rights related to content and speech online or in other digital contexts.
Legal Questions Surrounding Cell Phone Privacy
Cell phone carriers are required to track location data for emergency services but some choose to store this data for up to 3 years. Law enforcement can access this data without warrants in some cases.

Federal agencies are looking at privacy issues raised by location tracking and data collection on phones by carriers and third parties.
Privacy & Data Security for InHouse Counsel

Solutions proposed include conducting risk assessments, training employees, and appointing a privacy officer to develop policies with privacy and security in mind. The goal is to help in-house counsel navigate increasing regulation and litigation in this area.
Tech Group Announces Privacy Standards
A group of 15 large email marketing companies have proposed privacy standards to reduce spam. The standards would ban sending emails without consent, allow consumers to remove themselves from lists, restrict content to relevant topics only, and require disclosure of how customer information will be used. The group hopes these standards will eliminate clutter in inboxes and cut down on internet spam if adopted widely. However, the plan is still in draft form and some companies may not participate, so it may not completely solve the problem of unwanted emails.
Uga Social Media Privacy June2011

Comcast threatened to block Netflix if a fee was not paid by Level 3, a partner in Netflix's online streaming. This raised concerns about net neutrality and allowing internet providers to control access. The FCC wants to regulate broadband to prevent discrimination, but was rebuked by a court. The FCC may allow different service levels but forbid blocking content. There are ethical issues around who controls internet access and preventing monopolies to ensure a free and open internet. Limited FCC oversight may be needed to enforce net neutrality and fair competition.

Eth321_ Wk 2_ Heather Taylor_ Ethical Dilemma Paper
The document summarizes an ethical dilemma faced by Microsoft during an antitrust trial with the U.S. government. The government alleged that Microsoft abused its monopoly power in the operating system marketplace by integrating Internet Explorer into Windows and favoring its own products. The lengthy trial involved Microsoft, the Justice Department, Netscape, Intel, Sun, and others. Potential alternative solutions for Microsoft could have been agreeing to slow innovation or explaining how it faced competition. However, the complexity of the case led it to proceed to trial.
Black wednesday SOPA/PIPA Report
The document summarizes the opposition to the proposed SOPA and PIPA legislation in the US Congress in January 2012. Major websites went "black" on January 18th to protest the bills, which aimed to curb online piracy but were criticized for being too broad. The bills would have allowed sites to be blocked and payment services suspended over undefined terms like "facilitating infringement." This lack of clarity and due process is what led to widespread protests against the bills on "Black Wednesday," with users and sites calling for more precise anti-piracy laws.

1. Behavioral advertising is online advertising where the type of ad selected is based on websites visited, actions taken, or user information. It allows for targeted ads but raises privacy concerns.
2. The FTC issued principles for industry self-regulation of behavioral advertising focusing on transparency, security, consent, and sensitive data use. However, the effectiveness of self-regulation alone is debated.
3. While industry opponents argue legislation could harm innovation, supporters believe laws are needed to ensure transparency and privacy protections, as self-regulation requires monitoring and evidence of compliance with principles.

Cybersecurity Legal and Compliance Issues Business & IT Leaders Must Know -- ...
This presentation was delivered by Shawn E. Tuma, Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Attorney, to the Joint Meeting of ISACA and IIA North Texas on January 12, 2017.
This presentation was significantly updated from past presentations and included a discussion of the groundbreaking New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) Cybersecurity Requirements for Financial Services Companies.
The main points of this presentation are:
(1) Cybersecurity events create a crisis situation and should be treated as such;
(2) Cybersecurity incidents are as much legal events as they are IT or Business / Public Relations events;
(3) Companies must have a cybersecurity breach response plan in place and tested, in advance;
(4) While consumer class action data breach litigation is a significant threat to companies and their leadership, it is not as great of a threat as regulatory enforcement by agencies such as the FTC and SEC, or the shareholder derivative claims for officer and director liability; and
(5) The odds are that all company will be breached, but preparation and diligence can help minimize the likelihood that such a breach from being a catastrophic event.
This presentation addresses the role of attorneys as the first responders in leading their clients through cybersecurity and data loss crisis events. The discussion begins by looking at the risk business have of being the victim of a cybersecurity or data loss incident and examining the nature of such incidents and the crisis environment they create. Then, because of this crisis environment, the need for leadership in helping keep the parties calm, rational, and making deliberate, calculated decisions.
The discussion then explains why cybersecurity events are legal events and legal counsel is the natural leader that should fulfill this role and how they can do so. It will then discuss the process legal counsel will take, including assembling the key players in such an event, both internally and externally.

ISSA North Texas - SecureWorld Expo Dallas - Cybersecurity Legal Issues: What...
This presentation was delivered by Shawn E. Tuma, Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Attorney, to ISSA North Texas on October 8, 2016.
This presentation was significantly updated from past presentations and included a discussion of the groundbreaking New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) Cybersecurity Requirements for Financial Services Companies.
The main points of this presentation are:
(1) Cybersecurity events create a crisis situation and should be treated as such;
(2) Cybersecurity incidents are as much legal events as they are IT or Business / Public Relations events;
(3) Companies must have a cybersecurity breach response plan in place and tested, in advance;
(4) While consumer class action data breach litigation is a significant threat to companies and their leadership, it is not as great of a threat as regulatory enforcement by agencies such as the FTC and SEC, or the shareholder derivative claims for officer and director liability; and
(5) The odds are that all company will be breached, but preparation and diligence can help minimize the likelihood that such a breach from being a catastrophic event.
This presentation addresses the role of attorneys as the first responders in leading their clients through cybersecurity and data loss crisis events. The discussion begins by looking at the risk business have of being the victim of a cybersecurity or data loss incident and examining the nature of such incidents and the crisis environment they create. Then, because of this crisis environment, the need for leadership in helping keep the parties calm, rational, and making deliberate, calculated decisions.
The discussion then explains why cybersecurity events are legal events and legal counsel is the natural leader that should fulfill this role and how they can do so. It will then discuss the process legal counsel will take, including assembling the key players in such an event, both internally and externally. It discusses the obligations for responding to such an event, the steps that must be taken, those that must be considered, and certain factors that go into the decision-making process. It briefly addresses the costs of such an incident and the liability issues that can arise from such an incident and failing to properly respond to the incident. This section includes a discussion of the cybersecurity lawsuit landscape, cybersecurity regulatory landscape, and the issue of cybersecurity-related officer and director liability stemming from shareholder derivative lawsuits based on cybersecurity incidents.
It concludes with a discussion of the steps that companies can take to prepare for and be in a better position to respond to and mitigate the negative repercussions of such an incident.

QA or the Highway - Component Testing: Bridging the gap between frontend appl...
These are the slides for the presentation, "Component Testing: Bridging the gap between frontend applications" that was presented at QA or the Highway 2024 in Columbus, OH by Zachary Hamm.
From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.

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).
