Accuracy and Timeliness

Privacy threats and technology both move at a dizzying pace. It seems like every week a new privacy law is passed or rejected, or a new court decision is announced that changes how an existing law is interpreted. New threats constantly emerge, as well as new responses to these threats. While I’ve made every effort to keep this book timely and accurate, some items will surely be out of date by the time you read this.

I am also not an attorney. And while I consulted with many, many attorneys during the writing of this book, it’s entirely likely that in my efforts to summarize complex topics I bludgeoned some of the finer legal points. So I’m just going to apologize now and get it over with. Any readers who notice errors of fact or judgment on my part should please contact me at . I promise to read every comment and make necessary corrections to future editions of this book.
