As technology pervades our work, play and leisure, it will bring several changes that we cannot even imagine today. We must start thinking what new laws, enforcement and dispute resolution frameworks will be needed…
1. What is an ideal platform for Technology Law Evolution?
To my mind, an ideal platform for Technology Law Evolution should be one that:
a. Studies and understands significantly and deeply, the challenges, risks and issues that Technology Law must address.
b. Defines its own goals with care and understanding for the needs of those who develop technologies; those who apply these to products, services and business models; those who use such products, services and business models; those whose lives, health and wellbeing are impacted by the advancement and application of technologies. This last issue is becoming more crucial as advancing technologies deeply impact our work, social interaction and entertainment. For instance, such a platform should help shape Technology Law in a way that encourages innovation, development of new products, services and business models; encourages co-operation and collaboration while keeping competition fair; all the while considering the impact on health, environment and inclusiveness.
c. Itself evolves to respond appropriately to fast changing technologies and new technologies that are changing the way we eat, work, travel, sport, meet, transact, interact socially and seek and provide entertainment.
2. Why is it needed?
As technology pervades our working, social and leisure lives, it will accelerate actions, magnify implications, raise new issues and challenges, and disrupt careers and social structures in ways that we cannot even imagine today. Will the old legal framework cope with such changes? And such accelerated changes? What new law making, law enforcement and dispute resolution frameworks will we need? How do we define these? And redefine these as technology advances?
3. What role can it play?
Such a platform can do things like the following:
