An Update, Looking Back, and Looking Forward | Cardozo Cyber ...

Welcome back, school is now in session! Don?t be fooled by the date of our last post. Cardozo Cyberlaw Society was very active over the 2011-2012 academic year.

During the Fall semester, we hosted an exciting panel discussion with The Calyx Institute?s Nicholas Merrill and the ACLU?s Jameel Jaffer. Both men discussed in detail how they successfully challenged portions of the Patriot Act?s National Security Letter (NSL) provisions, after Merrill received an NSL from the FBI requesting account information about one of his ISP?s clients back in 2004. Mr. Merrill and Calyx have been making news recently as Calyx strives to raise money to launch a privacy-focused telecom venture, and NSLs get new attention as EFF challenges the entire NSL statute in a new lawsuit.

We also held a very informative panel event on legal issues faced by tech startups. The panel featured Jonathan Askin from Brooklyn Law School?s BLIP Clinic and Etsy?s General Counsel, Sarah Feingold. The event generated great feedback and we plan to produce a follow-up to it soon.

We are currently planning our Fall and Spring events, so feel free to send us an email if you are interested in any particular cyberlaw issues or cases.
