  • The Lost Nuance of Big Data Policing
    THE LOST NUANCE OF BIG DATA POLICING 94 TEX. L. REV. __ (forthcoming 2015) Jane Bambauer* The third party doctrine permits the government to collect consumer records without implicating the Fourth Amendment. The doctrine strains the reasoning of all possible conceptions of the Fourth Amendment and is destined for reform. So far, scholars and jurists have advanced proposals using a cramped analytical model that attempts to balance privacy and security. They fail to account for the filterability of data. Filtering can simultaneously expand law enforcement access to relevant information while reducing access to irrelevant information. Thus, existing proposals will distort criminal justice by denying police a resource that can cabin discretion, increase distributional fairness, and exculpate the wrongly accused. This Article offers the first comprehensive analysis of third party data in police investigations by considering interests beyond privacy and security. First, it shows how existing proposals to require suspicion or a warrant will inadvertently conflict with other constitutional values, including equal protection, the First Amendment, and the due process rights of the innocent. Then it offers surgical reforms that address the most problematic applications of the doctrine: suspect-driven data collection, and bulk data collection. Well-designed reforms to the third party doctrine will shut down the data collection practices that most seriously offend civil liberties without impeding valuable, liberty-enhancing innovations in policing.

  • September 11 Attacks
    Chapter 1 September 11 Attacks We’re a nation that is adjusting to a new type of war. This isn’t a conventional war that we’re waging. Ours is a campaign that will have to reflect the new enemy…. The new war is not only against the evildoers themselves; the new war is against those who harbor them and finance them and feed them…. We will need patience and determination in order to succeed. — President George W. Bush (September 11, 2001) Our company around the world will continue to operate in this sometimes violent world in which we live, offering products that reach to the higher and more positive side of the human equation. — Disney CEO Michael Eisner (September 11, 2001) He risked his life to stop a tyrant, then gave his life trying to help build a better Libya. The world needs more Chris Stevenses. — U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton (September 12, 2012) We cannot have a society in which some dictators someplace can start imposing censorship here in the United States because if somebody is able to intimidate us out of releasing a satirical movie, imagine what they start doing once they see a documentary that they don’t like or news reports that they don’t like. That’s not who we are. That’s not what America is about. — President Barack Obama (December 19, 2014) 1.1 September 11, 2001 I was waking up in the sunny California morning on September 11, 2001. Instead of music playing on my radio alarm clock, I was hearing fragments of news broadcast about airplanes crashing into the Pentagon and the twin towers of the World Trade Center.

  • Digital Switzerlands
    ARTICLE DIGITAL SWITZERLANDS KRISTEN E. EICHENSEHR† U.S. technology companies are increasingly standing as competing power centers that challenge the primacy of governments. This power brings with it the capacity to bolster or undermine governmental authority, as well as increasing public demands for the companies to protect users from governments. The companies’ power raises serious questions about how to understand their role. Scholars have proposed varying conceptions, suggesting that the companies should be understood as public utilities, information fiduciaries, surveillance intermediaries, or speech governors. This Article takes up another possibility, one suggested by the companies themselves: that they are “Digital Switzerlands.” The Digital Switzerlands concept encompasses two ideas: (1) that the companies are on par with, not subordinate to, the countries that try to regulate them, and (2) that they are, in some sense, neutral. This Article critically evaluates the plausibility of these claims and explores how the companies differ from other powerful private parties. The Digital Switzerlands concept sheds light on why the companies have begun to resist both the U.S. government and foreign governments, but it also means that the companies do not always counter governments. Understanding the relationship between companies, users, and governments as triangular, not purely hierarchical, * This Article reflects developments through February 2019, when it was finalized for publication. † Assistant Professor, UCLA School of Law.

  • A REEVALUATION of the COMPUTER FRAUD and ABUSE ACT by Reid Skibelt
    CYBERCRIMES & MISDEMEANORS: A REEVALUATION OF THE COMPUTER FRAUD AND ABUSE ACT By Reid Skibelt ABSTRACT This Article contends that the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act is an overly punitive and largely ineffective approach to combating computer crime based on two fundamental critiques. The 1986 version of the CFAA contemplated a core distinction between harmless trespass and more substantial intrusions. Over time, this distinction has become ob- scured and is resulting in over-criminalization of offenders. Furthermore, the increased penalties for computer crime created by the USA PA- TRIOT Act, and the Cyber Security Enhancement Act, are unjust in ap- plication and ineffectual in deterring prospective computer criminals.

    Split Over the Use of the CFAA In recent years, employers have used the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA)’s focus on the issue of computer trespass against disloyal employees who take proprietary computer data to a competitor. However, lower courts are divided on the CFAA’s scope, and a circuit split has developed over interpretation of the CFAA on the question of authorized access.

  • Proactive Cybersecurity: a Comparative Industry and Regulatory Analysis
    PROACTIVE CYBERSECURITY: A COMPARATIVE INDUSTRY AND REGULATORY ANALYSIS Amanda N. Craig, JD*, Scott J. Shackelford, JD, PhD**, & Janine S. Hiller, JD*** ABSTRACT This Article analyzes recent business realities and regulatory trends shaping the proactive cybersecurity industry. To provide a framework for our discussion, we begin by describing the historical development of the industry and how it has been shaped by the applicable law in the United States and other G8 nations. We then catalogue the proactive cybersecurity practices of more than twenty companies, focusing on four case studies that we consider in the context of polycentric “global security assemblages.” Finally, we assess the emergence of proactive cybersecurity norms, both within industry and international law, and consider the implications of this movement on contemporary Internet governance debates about the role of the public and private sectors in regulating cyberspace. Ultimately, we maintain that proactive cybersecurity, especially if pursued with improved legal clarity and global cooperation, demonstrates an opportunity for polycentric partnerships to result in better protected IT assets. 1 Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2573787 TABLE OF CONTENTS INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................................................................. 3 I.
