law+tech blog

A little bit about me and this blog: I am an early-career lawyer and recent Texas Law grad who is fascinated by the expansion of Internet, IP, Privacy, and Free Speech law--especially in connection with today's emerging tech and digital media needs. Relatedly, I am also interested in the tech policy issues that concern online communities and the platforms in which they thrive, e.g., the democratization of information, digital rights management, net neutrality, ISP liability, and more.

Through this blog, I hope to pick apart and discuss some of these topics, many of which pertain to areas of law that are complicated, new, and largely unregulated.

Thanks for reading!

PSA: check out TLDRLegal

October 05, 2016

I came across this website earlier today, called TLDRLegal. What it does is translate popular software licenses (e.g., YouTube's Terms of Service) into plain, layperson English.

Plus, this site appears to be much active than my usual go-to, TOS;DR.
