Venture Technology Law: May 2010
http://venturetechnologylaw.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Monday, June 28, 2010. KISS and the Protesting at the G20. I warned you in my intro to this blog: while we usually address legal issues, from time to time we get to vent. And this is one of those times. If you prefer to stick to legal issues, please refer to Richard’s excellent post of Friday June 25. Flaws in the Canadian protections of rights.

So a few weeks ago I posited in “Don’t Need It, Don’t Want It” that service providers should not be the sacrificial lamb regarding handling of personal information (“PI”), or personal health information (“PHI”), where the service provider does not need access to this type of information to provide the services. Now for the flip side. To quote the philosophical geniuses that are The Rolling Stones (Mick Jagger and Keith Richards),. You get what you needR...

As I comb through online news articles about the latest WikiLeaks disclosures, I keep on asking myself: what was the purpose of this round of disclosure beyond embarrassing the U.S. and causing more discord in increasingly difficult diplomatic times?

The fact that everyone is spying on everyone else to gather some of this ...
