Contracting over Privacy: Introduction
本文介绍2015年芝加哥大学科斯-桑多尔法律经济学研究所举办的“隐私的契约化”研讨会论文,指出数据隐私法已被消费者合同法吸收,并提出基于契约化范式的隐私法研究议程。
This short essay introduces papers presented at the symposium Contracting over Privacy, which took place at the Coase-Sandor Institute for Law and Economics at the University of Chicago in fall 2015. The essay highlights a quiet legal transformation whereby the entire area of data privacy law has been subsumed by consumer contract law. It offers a research agenda for privacy law based on the contracting-over-privacy paradigm.
