Radar: Technology & Communications Update - February 2011
Welcome to 'Radar', Taylor Wessing’s update on developments in technology and communications law.
Radar covers a wide range of subjects relevant to technology and communications law, from matters of general interest and industry developments, to more specific issues, perhaps new legislation or case law. We aim to help keep you informed by reporting on new developments in a brief and easily digestible form. Where we think something is particularly important, we will include more detailed analysis and of course, if you would like more information on anything in this update, please let us know.
This month we look at:
- Advertising
Recent developments in the regulation of advertising, including the extension of the ASA's remit to cover websites. - Net neutrality
Is a two tier internet inevitable and if it is, does that spell the end of net neutrality? - Data protection
How do you know which national legislation applies to the handling of personal data? This is particularly relevant if you are an online business. - Competition
New block exemptions for Research & Development agreements
