ICT Law (Information, Communication, Software and Technology)

The reactive approach to today’s wide range of technological risks with no history or precedent prevents the kind of innovation that can be achieved by a more proactive approach. It has been said that the law tends to be backward-looking and historical. It’s based on statutes that have been enacted and case law, which has been based on decisions about facts that have already happened. And when we think about tech, it’s about things that are going to happen in the future
