The 21st century has been filled with a seemingly endless parade of disruptive technologies and emerging industries. Predicting how the law can and will respond is often speculative, to the detriment of clients and lawyers. When technological change limps slowly forward in a predictable manner, it is easier to anticipate how the law will react. When technological change leaps ahead, however, how will the law keep pace without being too reactive and/or restrictive? Until recently, it appeared as though the law was always playing catch-up, but this situation appears to be declining. The law in the United States is undergoing a transformation—one that will not inhibit the tail wagging the commerce dog into submission. These new legal paradigms offer a path toward technological adoption that augments society’s constantly morphing business landscape. http://bit.ly/2qLGTiz http://bit.ly/2qLGTiz+ -- Peterk Dallas, Tx [log in to unmask] Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org “If only there were a massive entity that I were forced to fund to tell me how I should live my life, since I’m so obviously incapable of deciding for myself.” M.
