Faced with emerging challenges in privacy and cybersecurity, state attorneys general (AGs) are at the forefront of enforcement. Companies face increasing expectations to implement robust cybersecurity programs, promptly notify individuals affected by data breaches, and establish effective monitoring and auditing systems. As new technologies such as wearable tech, brain tech, and gaming platforms emerge, state AGs are focusing on protecting the data generated by these innovations. Additionally, there is growing concern over deepfakes, unauthorized sale of consumer data, and safeguarding children’s online privacy.
Our special guest is David Horton, Professor of Law at the University of California, Davis, who has written a creative and thought-provoking article analyzing how courts should interpret certain key provisions that are frequently used in consumer arbitration agreements.
