Our Mini-Theme: Watches and Wallets, Compliance and Rebellion: The State of Cyberspace Law

handle is hein.journals/busiltom2014 and id is 374 raw text is: NOVEMBER 2014 Watches and Wallets, Compliance and Rebellion: The State of Cyberspace Law By Ted Claypoole This month's Cyberspace Law mini-theme in Business Law Today combines the timely and the timeless. Management of the Inter- net may be in flux, with direct consequences for American business. David Satola and Michael Kelly have been attending the most important recent ICANN meetings and pro- vide an update of a fight for power with all the drama of a telenovela. Steve Middle- brook lends his considerable expertise in payment systems to provide pointers to law- yers whose clients want to use bitcoin for payments. Middlebrook highlights the most practical aspects of the bitcoin phenomenon and places it in the context of our already familiar current payment options. John Rothchild glimpses the future of Cy- berspace Law as he describes our new era of connectivity and automation that some are calling the Internet of Things. He finds new and practical legal issues, like the regu- lation of self-help software options that are already changing the way automobiles are sold and the loans for them are secured. Fi- nally, I add a meditation on the eternal con- cerns of protecting your most valuable as- sets. But now, the assets are electronic, and laws, rules, and regulations command you to protect them in specific ways. Together, these articles demonstrate di- rections for the future of Cyberspace Law, colored with the split between implement- ing cutting-edge technology and regulating practical business matters. Enjoy the mini- theme and keep your eyes on this space. The journey continues. Ted Claypoole is the Chair of the Cyberspace Law Committee. 1 Published in Business Law Today, November 2014. @ 2014 by the American Bar Association. Reproduced with permission. All rights reserved.
