Title: Recommendations for the Evolution of Cyberlaw
Abstract: This article focuses on the privacy implications arising from an increasing reliance on digital networks for communication, commerce, education and entertainment. Greater access to the maze of information and services will create needs for customized services and tools to guide users through the information anarchy and channel products of interest to consumers. Yet these trends raise concerns about what usage data will be collected and how such data will be stored, used and disclosed to others. While there have been calls from privacy advocates in the U.S. to adopt the European model and create new privacy laws and federal agencies to govern data use practices, this approach conflicts with not only traditional U.S. legal privacy paradigms, but also with current U.S. public opinion. The global market for interactive services, the U.S. public's growing concern for their privacy in cyberspace and reluctance to rely on government intervention with respect to personal privacy matters all support initial reliance on market forces and the industry-regulatory model. For U.S. providers of interactive services to remain competitive in the United States and operate in global markets, they must establish and maintain their subscribers' trust with respect to individual privacy. Consumers will penalize providers who fail to proactively disclose their data collection practices and privacy safeguards.
