The Information Law Institute and The Center on Law and Security are co-sponsoring this panel on Cloud Data Access.
Abstract: More than ever before, people today rely on cloud computing services for email, online storage and backup, social media, video services, and gaming. However, the laws governing data privacy obligations were written long before anyone dreamed up the cloud. This makes regulatory issues very complicated at the purely domestic level, but even more so when cross-jurisdictional issues come into play as users, their data, and technology providers can all reside in different physical locations. In fact, government and industry are grappling with these issues on many front – in diplomatic discussions between the US and Europe, in legislation introduced in the U.S. Senate, and, most recently, in a large case brought by Microsoft Corporation challenging a U.S. government search warrant for customer communications stored in a company datacenter in Dublin, Ireland. This CLE will explore legal questions raised by these jurisdictional issues, the laws involved, and arguments on how these issues should be resolved.
Panelists: Professor Katherine Strandburg, NYU Law; Professor Ira Rubinstein, NYU Law; Zachary Goldman, NYU Law
