Costello R: The Data Protection Acts and
the GDPR

The Data Protection Acts and the GDPR

A Commentary

The U.S. Constitution is silent about a right to privacy, yet the Supreme Court determined in the 1965 reproductive rights case Griswold v. Connecticut, that such a right is inferred from the Bill of Rights. The reasoning in the landmark case hinged on an unexpected word – penumbra. The Court concluded, in other words, that the unmentioned right to privacy resides in the shadows of the amendments.But this was not the first time penumbral imagery was used in legal writings, and its broader cultural usage dates back much further. Jared Schroeder's The Penumbra Problem provides a much-needed – and quite colorful – social and cultural history of the term. The penumbra concept, it turns out, wasn't an accidental choice but instead a well-selected term with centuries of transnational history.Schroeder tells its story through two intertwining narratives: first, how the word penumbra transcended its oblique scientific origins to become a distinct cultural concept; and, second, the parallel story of its evolving use in legal thought. The book tracks back and forth in time, creating an unexpected lineage of people and works who became unwitting champions of the penumbra concept, including mathematician Johannes Kepler, feminist activist Estelle Griswold, British thinker Robert Hooke, and lexicographer Noah Webster. Pairing these stories with the writings of great legal thinkers such as Willam Douglas and Oliver Wendell Holmes, Schroeder is able to construct a kind of etymological love letter to this obscure concept.Not everyone has supported the privacy precedent, though, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is in danger today. Schroeder's clever, utterly unique history is, at its core, a call to redouble efforts to save the right to privacy. He argues that we must understand its ponderous, indeed uncertain, origins to fully appreciate the precarity in which it exists today, and only then can we adequately fight for it.

The Penumbra Problem

Hart Studies in European Criminal Law

Law Enforcement Access and Data Protection in EU Law

The first book to investigate, analyze and theorize the creative processes of literary writers, Creativity and Contingency in Literary Writing uses author interviews, manuscript genetics and textual evidence to explore creativity from the authorial perspective. Studying an author's practice, literary form and contextual contingencies as elements that affect literary creativity, Karin Kukkoken develops theoretical models for examining the age-old problem of artistic creation and how it has been put to works by authors from the nineteenth century to the age of digital fiction, across a range of languages. With insights from the cognitive sciences, anthropology and philosophy of mind as well as literary studies, the book calls upon interviews with Siri Hustvedt, Marina Warner, Anne Weber, Camille Laurens, Gwenaëlle Aubry, Kate Pullinger, Gunnhild Øyehaug, Maria Stepanova and György Dragomán and studies the manuscripts of Charlotte Brontë, Cora Sandel, Elsa Morante and Italo Calvino. Overcoming the traditional distinction between creative agent, process and creative product, Creativity and Contingency in Literary Writing is as accessible and illuminating as it is important to understandings of human creativity.

Creativity and Contingency in Literary Writing

Cybersecurity has become a contractual issue, yet many legal professionals are expected to deal with it without a technical background. Cybersecurity Contracts Essentials provides the essential knowledge needed to understand the foundations of the field, interpret technical issues and assess their legal and commercial consequences. Covering software security, identity management, communications, security testing and managed security services, it explains how cybersecurity obligations, risks and responsibilities are translated into contracts. Written for lawyers and other legal professionals, the book offers a practical basis from which readers can develop their own informed understanding of cybersecurity and work more confidently with technical specialists, suppliers and clients. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Cyber Law online service.

Modern Studies in European Law

This book offers a comprehensive examination of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) and its engagement with public international law. It explores how the Court has developed a flexible, context-dependent approach to international law, which seeks to balance the autonomy of the EU legal order with the necessity of recognising and integrating international legal principles. Rather than focusing on landmark cases, the book analyses the CJEU's jurisprudence thematically, exploring the various ways the Court encounters and engages with international law. These include the use of international law as a source and inspiration of EU law, as a method of challenging the validity of EU law, and as method of interpretation. The book goes beyond analysis of the judgments and explores the broader context in which the Court navigates its relationship with international law. It examines the circumstances under which the Court establishes barriers around the EU legal order, such as when it develops the principle of autonomy, and when it builds bridges with the international legal order, such as when it seeks to engage with and develop international law principles. This book will be of interest to scholars, practitioners, and students focused on the intersections of EU law and public international law, contributing to ongoing debates about legal pluralism and the evolving dynamics of intersecting legal frameworks.

The MIBI Agreements and the Law

An unsparing challenge to conventional thinking about data regulation, showing that privacy laws choke off beneficial technologies without protecting society and individuals from harm. Ask anyone about the downsides of the digital economy, and one of the first concerns that comes to mind will be privacy. Indeed, activists and politicians increasingly talk about data privacy as though it were a fundamental human right. In this boldly contrarian rejoinder, Omri Ben-Shahar argues that many privacy laws are worse than useless. They do nothing to address the serious social problems of our data-soaked world-think, for instance, of algorithmic discrimination, concentrated platform power, or social media's impact on mental health. Meanwhile, promising digital technologies are held back by privacy regulations. Tracking devices that provide feedback on dangerous driving could cut fatal car crashes by 30 percent, yet they are prohibited in California. Facial recognition technology has already been used to rescue thousands of victims of human trafficking, yet it is largely banned in the EU. And machine-learning analysis of electronic health records would be a boon to biomedical research, but privacy rules often stand in the way. Fear of Data offers a new paradigm for the age of AI: We should think about data not in terms of individual rights but as a shared concern, like the environment. Technology's pollution of our digital commons can be remediated only through collective action. And just as we regulate factory emissions without shutting down factories altogether, so we can regulate data technologies without giving up all the good they have to offer. Drawing on the latest research and vivid real-world cases, Ben-Shahar helps us navigate the cost-benefit trade-offs that will enable a future of data-enriched flourishing.

Das Datenschutzrecht befindet sich im Umbruch: Mit der Datenschutzgrundverordnung wird das bislang geltende Datenschutzrecht neu gestaltet. Das neue Lehrbuch zum Datenschutzrecht nimmt die Reform zum Anlass, um "aus einem Guss" das neue Datenschutzrecht in Gänze aufzubereiten. Ausgehend von zahlreichen Fällen werden die dogmatischen Grundstrukturen des Rechtsgebietes hergeleitet und die typischen Problemlagen, wie sie sich in der universitären Schwerpunktausbildung stellen, erörtert. Jedes Kapitel schließt mit Wiederholungs- und Vertiefungsfragen, die zur Kontrolle des Erlernten dienen. Die wichtigsten Begriffe werden in einem Anhang erläutert.

Beswick and Wine on Buying and Selling Private Companies and Businesses

This innovative work offers a new perspective on the established tort of misuse of private information, contending that English law has evolved a sophisticated mechanism for the protection of privacy and the protection of the economic value in private information. Although information generally is not property, private information now appears to be treated by English law as a form of property, giving the owner of the information rights of exclusion, exploitation and transfer. Balancing philosophical discussion of the fundamentals with a detailed analysis of the practical difficulties of "propertising" information, the book suggests that English law has evolved a powerful tool for the protection of privacy in this data-driven world.
