The context: the gap between technology
and the law
Confronted with rapid technological evolution and the new risks it
brings, legal and regulatory frameworks are lagging behind, especially
since the issues in question are being asked on an international scale.
Whether it concerns intellectual property rights, data protection,
security, conformity, the many legal texts (laws, European directives
and regulations, international norms) are struggling to adapt and
evolve in order to take into account the new boundaries of usages and
digital risks.
Technology will always be one step ahead (or many) of legal and
regulatory frameworks: every emerging technology and its associated
usage will bring up new legal and regulatory questions.
Technology will always be one step ahead
(
or many) of legal and regulatory frameworks!
