IT, software & internet

There is no question that the Internet has revolutionised the global economy. Many of the services that underpin our life today didn’t even exist a decade ago, and there’s no telling what the next big technology will be.

However, one factor has remained constant: every disruptive new technology brings new legal challenges and it can be particularly difficult to know which laws – if any – will apply to a new service, and what the consequences, risks and opportunities will be.
