Jeremy S. Goldman Quoted in Los Angeles Times on Crypto and NFTs
Blockchain Technology Partner Jeremy S. Goldman was quoted in the article, “Et Tu, Larry? Why So Many Celebrities Are Shilling for Crypto” published by the Los Angeles Times. The article discusses the entertainment industry’s growing interest in blockchain technology – surveying the Super Bowl LVI ads that focused on cryptocurrencies and NFTs. Jeremy acknowledges the growing pains and inherent risks, but makes clear the new technology is already well established: "There’s going to be bubbles, there’s going to be bad actors, there’s going to be scams.…But that doesn’t negate the fact that underlying this is an incredible new innovation that has the ability to bring tremendous value to new creators and to existing creators.” Jeremy added that “NFTs are here to stay” and “They’re just going to evolve, as technology always does.”

States Turn to Outside Firms to Generate Big Privacy Settlements
Holly A. Melton is quoted in the Bloomberg Law article on the growing practice of state attorneys general hiring outside counsel for litigation in data privacy and online safety cases. The article noted this shift boosts companies’ risk profiles, with smaller states taking on more complex cases. “‘One, don’t ignore the states that don’t necessarily have privacy laws because you’re not safe’ said Holly Melton, partner at Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz. ‘And two, the sort of posture has already kind of ratcheted up when they come in with outside counsel who’s sort of running the show.’”
Bloomberg Law stated this strategy is getting mixed results. Some states point out that they could not bring certain cases without the staffing, resources and expertise of the private firms. But critics question outside counsels’ driving state priorities—selecting enforcement for big payouts or settlements, more akin to civil plaintiff litigation instead of traditional AG litigation that prioritizes companies changing their behavior.

The Television Academy in its Televerse News quoted Daniel M. Goldberg, who spoke about AI at the academy’s three-day festival. Televerse featured television industry professionals both in front of and behind the camera, expert panelists, FYC (For Your Consideration) discussions, and screenings of shows nominated for this year’s Emmy Awards. Mr. Goldberg spoke on a panel covering “how federal and state lawmakers, courts, content creators and other stakeholders are responding to the evolving technology's impact on copyright, licensing and rights protection.” When asked for future predictions for six months from now, Mr. Goldberg responded, "'It's so hard to predict even two weeks from now. But I think you're going to see the states continue to pick up [on regulating AI] where the federal government is not.’” View Article

Attorney Cautions That Privacy Laws Cover All Platforms, Not Just Sites
Privacy Daily quotes Daniel M. Goldberg in an article on growing trends in privacy laws and enforcement. The publication covered a webinar presented by Mr. Goldberg and Privado CEO Vaibhav Antil. Mr. Goldberg stated, '“although several enforcement actions have targeted websites, mobile apps are also subject to all privacy laws'” He noted how it’s no longer enough for companies to rely on privacy vendors for compliance but must practice due diligence. Mr. Goldberg reviewed California enforcement actions against Honda, Todd Snyder, and Healthline.
“With all three of these examples, ‘these are not companies that did nothing,” he said. ‘These are companies that had measures in place, that had actually used a vendor to implement them, but the way that it was configured was not tracking the law perfectly.’” He also pointed out how enforcements and fines are rising.
