A couple of folks have asked me why I’ve gone silent over the past few months and posted so little here on the TLF. Simply put, I over-committed myself to one law review after another. I had submitted a few working papers to law reviews late last year and then was simultaneously approached by a few others who were soliciting specific pieces. And I said ‘yes’ to everybody! That’s meant zero time for casual blogging of any sort. I hope to get back on the beat soon, but I still am putting the wraps on two of these, so it may be awhile before I get back to blogging regularly. Anyway, to the extent anyone is interested in what I am working on, here are my next seven law review articles, plus a book chapter:
- “Technopanics, Threat Inflation, and the Danger of an Information Technology Precautionary Principle,” [14 Minnesota Journal of Law, Science & Technology, Winter 2013]
- “The Perils of Classifying Social Media Platforms as Public Utilities,” [forthcoming, The CommLaw Conspectus: Journal of Communications Law and Policy, Spring 2013]
- “Uncreative Destruction: The Misguided War on Vertical Integration in the Information Economy,” with Brent Skorup, [65 Federal Communications Law Journal, April 2013]
- “The Pursuit of Privacy in a World Where Information Control Is Failing,” [35 Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy, 2013]
- “Benefit-Cost Analysis in Online Safety & Digital Privacy Debates,” [forthcoming, George Mason University Law Review]
- “A History of Cronyism & Capture in the Information Technology Sector,” with Brent Skorup, [forthcoming Mercatus Working Paper, February 2013. Looking for a home for this one, possibly in a poly sci or history journal instead of a law review.]
- “Internet Policy Paradigms: The First Half Century of Internet Governance Visions” [Looking for a home for this one, too, but still far from done with it.]
- [Book chapter] “A Framework for Responding to Online Safety Risks,” [forthcoming book chapter in: Youth And The Internet – Regulating Online Opportunities And Risks (Springer Press, 2013)]
