Daniel Solove interviews Alessandro Acquisti (MIT) about his pathbreaking work on the economics of privacy. Topics include the privacy paradox, the value of personal data, attitudes and behaviors, and the impact of laws.
Privacy and AI law haven’t been sitting still; there have been many new developments. Daniel Solove chats with Jodi Daniels (Red Clover Advisors) about what has been happening.
Speakers include:
Dive into these humorous Halloween cartoons exploring the spooky realms of artificial intelligence, privacy, and big data. These cartoons offer a fun twist on how tech influences our lives.

In this webinar, we discussed the growing privacy law activity in the U.S. states, including subject-specific laws involving AI, children’s data, biometric data, health data, reproductive health data, and more. We also discussed new general consumer privacy laws, regulations, enforcement, and other topics.

Planning privacy training can be daunting, but we have some valuable resources to kickstart your efforts.
I have created an illustrated whiteboard to summarize privacy program topics in just 1 page. The whiteboard is free for personal use.
I have courses on more than 180 privacy and security topics.

My latest cartoon – on data minimization. Maryland’s privacy law incorporated a strong data minimization requirement, and future privacy regulation might follow suit. For more about data minimization, see Jordan Francis’s terrific article, Data Minimization’s Substantive Turn: Key Questions and Operational Challenges Posed by New State Privacy Legislation.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly advancing, influencing our work and daily lives. Unknowingly, we interact with and supply information to diverse AI systems every day. Here are my latest AI tools and insights to keep you current.
This cartoon illustrates a key point my new book, ON PRIVACY AND TECHNOLOGY — the law must establish the right incentives for technology to promote privacy, safety, and other important values:
Only by establishing the right legal structure and the right incentives can the law succeed in holding creators and users of technology accountable. Instead, the law often does the opposite. It empowers the powerful; it makes exceptions for new technologies from traditional mechanisms of accountability; it allows organizations to construct business models based on massive scale and cheap expenses that are only possible by externalizing costs to individuals. Courts often fail to recognize privacy harms or trivialize them. Even when there are clear violations of privacy laws, courts use creativity not to help victims but to close off ways to obtain redress. Through its actions, the law is sending a message regarding new technologies: to create and use them irresponsibly and to care mainly about growth and profit. When harm is caused, the law often finds a way to help the wrongdoer evade responsibility. To avoid a dystopian future, we must demand that the law take a different path. (pp. 107-108)
