Julian Assange on Fear
“Fear exists largely in the imagination. That’s what powerful people prey on. It simply isn’t possible to police the world’s citizens, so what they rely on is fear.
Once you realise that fear exists largely in your own mind, then you are on the way to liberation. Also I have this righteous indignation. It spurs me on. Makes me feel invincible.”

The geometrically-enhanced capabilities of the emerging web technology spotlights the long-ignored issues of who owns the worldwide web, who manages the worldwide web, and who has jurisdiction over the worldwide web? The answer now is: nobody!- Gene Stephens, Future Challenges of Cybercrime 13 (2010) (FBI and Police Futurists Int’l Working Group) http://bit.ly/pA51OV.

Ethical Pitfalls
• [T]he use of technologies such as cloud storage will never lessen—and may, in fact, increase and make more complicated—an attorney’s obligations under the Rules of Professional Conduct.
• As an initial matter, an attorney must have at least a base-level comprehension of the technology and the implications of [cloud computing’s] use.

Geek Speak and Lawyering“One of the primary reasons that electronic data is lost is ineffective communication with information technology personnel.
By taking possession of, or otherwise safeguarding, all potentially relevant backup tapes, counsel eliminates the possibility that such tapes will be inadvertently recycled…
Counsel failed to communicate the litigation hold order to all key players. They also failed to ascertain each of the key players' document management habits…
This case represents a failure of communication, and that failure falls on counsel and client alike.”
Zubulake v. UBS Warburg LLC, 229 F.R.D. 422 (S.D.N.Y.2004) (aka Zubulake V)
