Global platforms present novel challenges. They are powerful conduits of commerce and global community, and their potential to influence behavior is enormous. Defeating Disinformation explores how to balance free speech and dangerous online content to reduce societal risks of digital platforms. The volume offers an interdisciplinary approach, drawing upon insights from different geographies and parallel challenges of managing global phenomena wit…
Technology Takes Time: Review Article of Jeffrey Ding's Technology and the Rise of Great Powers by Josephine Wolff
Many scholars have wrestled with the ways that technological innovation can fuel economic growth and result in shifts in political power and military conflict. These arguments have helped motivate a more recent literature looking at artificial intelligence (AI) that has, in many cases, emphasized the need for rapid development of AI technologies for fear of otherwise falling behind other countries and suffering significant economic and national s…
The role of insurers in shaping international cyber-security norms about cyber-war
Faced with defending against myriad online threats, businesses are increasingly turning to insurers to purchase cyber-insurance policies that will shield them from bearing the full costs of these incidents. Eager not to miss out on the expanding market, insurers have aggressively ramped up their cyber-insurance offerings, and in doing so, have assumed enormous responsibility—and power—as the arbiters of what types of state-sponsored cyber-attacks…
Cyberinsurance Policy: Rethinking Risk in an Age of Ransomware, Computer Fraud, Data Breaches, and Cyberattacks
How Is Technology Changing the World, and How Should the World Change Technology
Technologies are becoming increasingly complicated and increasingly interconnected. Cars, airplanes, medical devices, financial transactions, and electricity systems all rely on more computer software than they ever have before, making them seem both harder to understand and, in some cases, harder to control. Government and corporate surveillance of individuals and information processing relies largely on digital technologies and artificial intel…
Early GDPR Penalties: Analysis of Implementation and Fines Through May 2020
The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which went into effect in May 2018, enabled European Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) to fine companies up to 4 percent of their annual revenue in the event that they were found in violation of the regulation's requirements for data collection, processing, and use. But the regulation gave DPAs considerable leeway to determine how they would implement these penalties. This article analyzes 261 publi…
