"Privacy Policies in the United States" Presentation Slides
By Eric Goldman
I recently guest lectured on drafting privacy policies in the United States. My presentation slides.
One of my big-picture takeaway points is that privacy laws and associated industry self-regulation have gotten so extensive that drafting privacy policies is strictly for privacy experts. Unlike the good ol' days, the average competent lawyer--and even the sophisticated cyberlawyer who dabbles with privacy issues--may be unintentionally treading towards the malpractice line given the number and complexity of the applicable laws and technology. As a result, in all likelihood, I've already drafted the last privacy policy of my career. I'm curious if you agree (if you email me, let me know if I can post your email as a comment to this post).
