The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) provided testimony to the Senate Committee on the Judiciary regarding proposed reforms to the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA). The FTC supports updating ECPA to account for technological advances while protecting privacy, but is concerned that recent proposals could hamper its ability to obtain important information for consumer protection investigations. Specifically, the proposals may prevent the FTC from compelling providers to produce (1) previously public commercial content like marketing materials, (2) content with a customer's consent, or (3) content when direct requests to the target have failed. The FTC urges allowing civil law enforcement access to these types of content to effectively investigate fraud.
Over 200 new laws went into effect on January 1st. Some of them directly impact judicial proceedings and the people who interact with the court system.
DUI in Oregon is treated as a serious crime that carries real risks of jail time, fines, and license consequences. A first-time DUI offense is a Class A misdemeanor, for which a judge can impose up to 1 year in jail, 5 years of probation, and $6,250 in fines. Drivers face separate sanctions from both the DMV and the courts, including license suspension and criminal prosecution, with the sanctions depending on factors like failing or refusing a breathalyzer test. Even drivers hoping to resolve their case without trial should consult an attorney, as the process can involve ongoing obligations for 12-24 months or longer.

The UK Bribery Act 2010 applies to individuals and companies connected to the UK, as well as those committing bribery in the UK. It establishes three main bribery offenses - bribing another person, being bribed, and bribing a foreign official.

New report offers sobering view of the energy transition
Every year the Statistical Review of World Energy offers a behemoth of data on the state of the global energy market. This year’s findings highlight the world’s insatiable demand for energy and the need to speed up the pace of decarbonisation.
Here are our four main takeaways from this year’s report:
Fossil fuel consumption — and emissions — are at record highs
Countries burnt record amounts of oil and coal last year, sending global fossil fuel consumption and emissions to all-time highs, the Energy Institute reported. Oil demand grew 2.6 per cent, surpassing 100mn barrels per day for the first time.
Meanwhile, the share of fossil fuels in the energy mix declined slightly by half a percentage point, but still made up more than 81 per cent of consumption.
