Ben Waber reviewed Computers and the Law by Robert Dunne
An Incredible (if dated) Book on US Law
5 stars
This book introduces core US legal concepts that are broadly related to the digital world - contracts, IP, privacy, etc. Included throughout are illustrative cases, with both concurring and dissenting opinions, in addition to insightful analysis from Dunne. As one might expect from a book from 2009, a number of the concepts and case law is out of date. However, I actually found that useful - one could see if the reasoning underlying different decisions played out in practice. Also it's interesting to discover older precedents that may apply to very modern issues - I'm now thinking about cases involving spam and how their reasoning could be applied to web scraping. Highly recommend
