The Legal Look: The Overlooked Categories of Cyber Threats
When money is not an issue companies tend to look at legal standards differently. Today, also digital entrepreneurs seem to go their own way more than ever before. Take Uber. Since its establishment in 2009, all kinds of legal conflicts of weight have occurred in various jurisdictions. From large-scale privacy violations and alleged misuse of trade secrets to claims based on structural sexual harassment and misleading a supervisory body. Exemplary, however, are the legal battles relating to its UberPOP ride-share service, executed by ordinary people who love to moonlight. This business model fundamentally clashes with the licensed passenger transport regulation that many countries have in place. You could have counted that on your fingers in advance.
