Free Expression, Privacy, and Diminishing Sovereignty in the Information Age: The Internationalization of Censorship
No full textWhen Spanish lawyer Mario Costeja “googled” his name, a news story about his former debt appeared. Costeja had paid the debt long ago but the story continued to follow him. He sued a local Spanish newspaper and Google, asking the court to delete the record of his former debt. He did not claim the debt was factually untrue but that he had a right to be forgotten. In May 2014, a European court required that Google delete links connecting Costeja to his debt, and for the first time formally recognized the right to be forgotten. In the short time since the court’s ruling, Google has fielded 293,898 requests to deactivate more than 1 million links and has deleted over 40% of those, approximately 373,000 links. Deleted content – for now – disappears only from searches on European domain names, but pending E.U. legislation calls for worldwide applicability of the right to be forgotten. This Article suggests that the right to be forgotten is emblematic of the ambitious and ultimately flawed European approach to privacy law in the digital age. While informational privacy is undoubtedly important, an extraterritorial right to be forgotten harms more than helps. It allows one person on the other side of the globe to determine what the rest of us see. Its extraterritorial reach threatens to censor the Internet in its adolescence. It undermines democratic values attending national sovereignty by promoting one culture’s adherence to privacy over other cultures’ preference for free expression. It ignores a host of alternative approaches that tailor legal restrictions to the harms associated with privacy violations. This Article analyzes the conflict between free speech and the right to be forgotten, highlights the extraterritoriality and concomitant censorship implications of European privacy law, and articulates alternative regulatory frameworks that better balance free speech with informational privacy in the digital age
Drawn Together ... in Art ... in Love ... in Friendships: The Biography of Caldecott Award-Winning Authors Berta and Elmer Hader
No full textFor nearly a century, children have been enchanted by the picture books of Berta and Elmer Hader without knowing anything about the fascinating lives of this Caldecott Award winning authorillustrator couple (The Big Snow, 1949). Elmer fought the fires that erupted in San Francisco after the 1906 earthquake and earned enough money as a vaudeville actor to study impressionist art in France. Berta was a Mexico-born fashion illustrator who met Elmer in San Francisco while living on Telegraph Hill. After marrying and moving to Nyack, New York, they hosted parties with journalists, artists, and Broadway’s elite, EVERY weekend in the home they designed and built with their own hands (and the hands of their many friends). Years later they rallied their neighbors and forced a change to the construction path of the Tappan Zee Bridge that saved their little community. A unique and interesting story unfolds as author Sybilla Cook takes you on a journey with the Haders – through two World Wars, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and vast changes which occurred in the first half of the twentieth century to the education system and the children’s book publishing industry. The Haders’ lives and their work are quintessential and timeless examples of how the power of children’s art and literature affects the world for good.https://commons.cu-portland.edu/nwccl_pubs/1000/thumbnail.jp
