Data Cartels FUNTIME BOOK PARTY

The Engelberg Center on Innovation Law & Policyis an interdisciplinary center housed at NYU School of Law that focuses on legal and policy issues related to innovation, such as intellectual property law, information law, and competition law. It draws together legal scholars and practitioners, economists, historians, culturalists, social scientists, and representatives of the innovation industries to examine questions on allocating global resources to creative activities, to study the legal regimes and cultural forces that influence innovation, to explore methods for optimizing the exploitation of intellectual products, and to search for new ways to facilitate the transfer of technology from creator to end-user, across fields, and among nations.Learn more about the Engelberg Center

Exploring the companies that control our world's data flows

Lipton Hall at D'Agostino Hall

Professor of Law Sarah Lamdan will discuss her new book, <a href="https://www.sup.org/books/title/?id=33205" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Data Cartels: The Companies that Control and Monopolize Our Information</a> with MarketWatch Enterprise Reporter <a href="https://twitter.com/swodinsky" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Shoshana Wodinsky</a>. In the book, Lamdan compares publishers-turned-data analytics companies to informational cartels. She explains how the companies operate in multiple information markets, taking advantage of lax antitrust law enforcement, publisher-friendly copyright decisions, and a lack of data privacy laws and regulations. The legal status quo has helped just a few companies monopolize data and informational assets across legal, scientific, financial, news and personal data markets.Lamdan looks forward and to the past for legal solutions to ensure data privacy and information access as data analytics businesses flourish. She suggests a blend of digital copyright solutions to ensure information access to all, revived antitrust concepts to push back on cartel-like trends in information markets, and public media-like government support of our critical digital information resources.This FUNTIME BOOK PARTY is co-hosted by the Engelberg Center, <a href="https://www.law.nyu.edu/studentorganizations/ipels" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">IPELS</a>, NYU Libraries, <a href="https://www.rightsovertech.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Rights Over Tech</a>, and the <a href="https://sorensencenter.net/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sorensen Center for International Peace and Justice at CUNY School of Law</a><a href="https://www.law.cuny.edu/academics/social-justice/sorensen/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>.This event has been approved for .5 New York State CLE credits in the category of Ethics and Professionalism as well as .5 New York State CLE credits in the category of in Areas of Professional Practice.
