After-Hours E-Mail Ban Swells Brazil Cost as Business Rues Latest Hurdle. Brazilians tired of answering their boss’s after-hours e-mails may be able to charge overtime based on a law businesses see hurting competitiveness in Latin America’s largest economy.
Using portable communications devices is equivalent to working in the office, according to legislation signed by President Dilma Rousseff last month. The law is one more obstacle companies say they face in Brazil, where regulations mandating everything from employer- provided breakfasts to union contributions are a daily drag on efficiency bemoaned for decades as the “Custo Brasil,” or Brazil Cost. It takes less time to set up a business in Nigeria or Mongolia than it does Brazil, according to the World Bank, which ranked it No. 126 out of 183 countries in its 2012 competitiveness study. “It’s very worrying,” Emerson Casali, head of labor relations at the National Industry Confederation, said in a phone interview from Brasilia.

Geolocation Privacy and Surveillance (“GPS”) Act While technology – like cell phones, smart phones, lap tops and navigation devices – continues to make it increasingly easy to track and log the location of nearly every American, federal laws have failed to keep pace, meaning there are no clear rules governing how law enforcement, commercial entities and private citizens can access, use and sell that data.
With this in mind, a bipartisan coalition led by Senator Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) and Senator Mark Kirk (R-Ill.) have reintroduced the Geolocation Privacy and Surveillance Act (GPS Act) in the House and Senate which will require law-enforcement to obtain a warrant before acquiring geolocation information of an American. The bipartisan legislation creates a legal framework designed to give government agencies, commercial entities and private citizens clear guidelines for when and how geolocation information can be accessed and used.

Introduction GPS technology is not new, but in the recent past, it has become so widespread that it now affects most everyone's lives. Yet, because of the intimate, locational nature of GPS data, these technologies have engendered privacy questions which beg closer examination, particularly due to the potential law enforcement (or other government) exploitation of GPS locational information. The first portion of this Article will therefore closely examine the rules, uses, and potential applications of sections 12 and 23 alone, without regard to GPS technology.
Since there is no Florida case law directly addressing the question of GPS-cellular devices under sections 12 or 23, the following analysis depends partially on legal predictions. . *41 II.

In response, Samsung files international countersuits on patents of its own. Courts around the world grant preliminary injunctions to each company on a number of their claims, while United States and European Union government agencies investigate allegations of antitrust violations . What’s going on here? Let’s start with the shiny new weapon that Apple added to its arsenal in June of last year: a patent on the original iPhone , the paperwork for which had been in the works since December of 2007. That patent claims, among other things, the finger-gesture-based set of input methods that has become integral to the functionality of today’s smartphones. Enter Samsung, now the world’s largest manufacturer of smartphones and owner of numerous patents covering globally standardized technological protocols .

With the increased use of cloud storage new questions have arisen related to the privacy and confidentiality of files stored remotely. Although file storage on remote servers is not a new creation, many of the legal doctrines surrounding privacy and confidentiality of files were created without use of the cloud in mind and have not adapted to the expanded use of the cloud. While cloud storage can be an economical and practical method for storing data and information, use of the cloud may result in reduced privacy protection. When using cloud storage, an individual or a company uses storage capacity provided to it by a third party instead of maintaining its own files. Although one may not intuitively view this distinction as significant, there is case law ( US v. Miller (1976) ) which allows such information to be treated differently for privacy purposes. 4.3.
