However, public blockchains challenge traditional regulatory models that assume centralised, single points of control facilitated via established intermediaries. In such a context, the present paper analyses the potential liability attaching to blockchain participants and considers how privacy laws apply to blockchain transactions, given the immutable nature of blockchain records. The paper then recommends reforms to strengthen blockchain regulation, including statutory recognition of fiduciary obligations for elite developers with super-user access to allow recourse for loss resulting from hard forks. A ‘hard fork’ is a radical change to a network’s protocol that leads to formerly valid blocks and transactions becoming invalid or vice-versa. Finally, the paper considers changes to privacy laws to permit ongoing consent and cross-border disclosure of data to accommodate blockchain operations.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2021.1959729","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47111575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A white paper defines the relationship and interaction between a regulated social reality and program code, which is by itself not susceptible to legal regulation. This article investigates the legal conditions of the white papers that describe the projects of ICO. The author provides a legal analysis of numerous white papers published during ICO implementation around the world. Based on extensive data on implemented ICO projects, the correlation between the legal content of a white paper and the amount of funds collected as a result of the ICO is considered. Having analysed the determinants of the white paper legal content, the author suggests the legal provisions that any ICO white paper should have.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2021.1950382","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43550586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There has been increasing academic and regulatory interest in addressing cybersecurity risks from both the standpoint of IoT vendors and that of end-users. In addition to the current data protection and network security legal frameworks, for example, the UK government has initiated the ‘Secure by Design’ campaign. While there has been work on how organisations and individuals manage their own cybersecurity risks, it remains unclear to what extent IoT vendors are supporting end-users to perform day-to-day management of such risks, and what is stopping the vendors from improving such support. We interviewed 13 experts in the field of IoT and identified three main categories of barriers to making IoT products useably secure: technical, legal and organisational. In this paper we further discuss the policymaking implications of these findings and make some recommendations.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2021.1957193","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42896828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Problems of applying existing principles of legal liability in AI environment are addressed. This paper argues that the sharing of risk as a basis for proportionate liability should be a basis for a new liability regime to govern future autonomous machines. It is argued that this approach favors the reality of parties’ consent to taking the risk of unpredictable AI behavior over the technicality of existing principles of legal liability. The suggested approach also encourages transparency and responsible decisions of developers and owners of AI systems. A flowchart to clarify possible outcomes of applying the suggested approach is provided. The paper also discusses the need for harmonization of national laws and international cooperation regarding AI incidents crossing national borders to ensure predictability of legal rules governing the liability ensuing from AI applications.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2020.1856025","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48116540","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The author discusses the nexus between property ownership and legal personhood. The paper explains the prevailing misconceptions about the requirements of rights or duties in legal personhood, and discusses the potential for conferring rights or imposing obligations on weak and strong AI. While scholars have discussed AI owning real property and copyright, there has been limited discussion on the nexus of AI property ownership and legal personhood. The paper discusses the right to own property and the obligations of property ownership in nonhumans, and applying it to AI. The paper concludes that the law may grant property ownership and legal personhood to weak AI, but not to strong AI.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2020.1861714","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41854264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has been suggested that Article 22 GDPR may prohibit online personalised pricing, as online personalised pricing involves the making of automatic pricing decisions based on customers’ personal data. However, this paper will argue that Article 22 GDPR should not be relied upon to constrain online personalised pricing. Two main reasons are given in support of this argument. First, Article 22 GDPR does not in fact pose a significant obstacle to online personalised pricing. Second, there are good reasons why a prohibitory stance against online personalised pricing should not be adopted, and a transparency-centric approach should be preferred instead.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2020.1860460","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48853065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It identifies various types of digital clones that have been developed and demonstrates how the pursuit of more accurate personalised consumer data for micro-targeting leads to the evolution of digital thought clones.

Given big data’s industrial-scale data mining and relentless commercialisation of all types of human data, this article identifies some types of protections but argues that more jurisdictions urgently need to enact legislation similar to the General Data Protection Regulation in Europe to protect people against unscrupulous and harmful uses of their data and the unauthorised development and use of digital thought clones.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2020.1850174","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60090944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With regard to advancing compliance specifically, the role of international organizations cannot be overemphasized. Although data privacy is no longer new to Africa, compliance with data privacy norms has been significantly lower compared to other jurisdictions. A (possible) explanation for this is that the primary regional organization on the continent – the African (AU) – has played an insignificant role in this regard. Related to this explanation is the usual contention that the absence of a settled normative standard is a reason for the low level of compliance. Since there is now a continental data privacy standard in Africa - the AU Data Protection Convention - the question remains why is compliance still low. Therefore, using insights from the normative and institutional theories of state compliance with international norms, the article examines why there is still a low compliance rate. The article then suggests how to strengthen the AU towards advancing compliance with data privacy norms on the continent.","PeriodicalId":44342,"journal":{"name":"Information & Communications Technology Law","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/13600834.2021.1849953","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42750843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
