Open Letter to Law School Deans about Privacy Law Scholars and Curriculum

Before the pandemic, I spearheaded a group of legal academics and practitioners in the field of privacy law who sent a letter to the deans of all U.S. law schools about privacy law education.  The pandemic occurred not too long after our letter, and deans had many other things to worry about during that time.

I sent a follow up letter recently about why law schools should increase and improve their privacy law faculty and curriculum.

You can see a PDF of the letter here.

Information Privacy Law Casebook

Recently I published the 8th edition of my case book, Information Privacy Law, with Professor Paul Schwartz. This is a very special edition, as this year marks the 20th anniversary of the casebook!

New material in the 8th edition includes more FTC and CJEU cases, reproductive freedom post-Dobbs, and a lot of material on AI and algorithmic decision-making in the chapters on law enforcement (Chapter 4), consumer data (Chapter 9), and employment (Chapter 12). And we updated for new developments in EU law, cross-border-data transfers, standing, dark patterns, platform governance, scraping, state privacy laws, biometric privacy, and much more.

New Edition of Privacy Law Fundamentals

Privacy Law Fundamentals, Seventh Edition (2024) is my short guide to privacy law with Professor Paul Schwarts (Berkeley Law).
