We are pleased to bring you the July 2020 edition of Emerging
Issues for the Australian Technology, Media and Telecommunications
(TMT) sector.
In this Emerging Issue, we take an in-depth look at: the
implications of the recent Data Protection Commission v Facebook
Ireland Limited (C-311/18) decision and what it means for
Australian businesses sharing data globally; developments in
defamation law in the context of a number of recent Australian
decisions regarding the liability of online media platforms;
current opportunities and challenges facing the adoption of
blockchain technology, particularly smart contracts; and what the
digital shift in Australian clinical trials means for the life
sciences industry.
