Digital Law and its effects on the International Economy

Kristen Kerr, October 2015

The fourth amendment protects Americans from unreasonable search and seizure and is often a key player in privacy law.  In this paper, we will examine Privacy law and how it is applied differently from country to country.  Privacy is perceived differently depending on culture and values.  Laws vary in different countries protecting privacy and its citizens.  In a global economy social media networks are used everywhere and different lawsuits are unfolding as what some consider standard procedure others find an invasion of privacy.  This paper will examine the history and current events in privacy law and cases.
