  In Unruly: Fighting Back when Politics, AI, and Law Upend the Rules of Business, cofounder of software company Hence Technologies and former Global Deputy CEO of Eurasia Group, Sean West, delivers a startlingly insightful new take on how politics, technology, and law are converging to upend the rules of business, generating dangerous risks and incredible opportunities. West convincingly argues that we must understand all three factors to get leverage over the future—a future filled with eroding rule of law, deepfakes that upend elections and court decisions, government pressure for businesses to be patriotic, robot lobbyists, a flood of automated legal claims pointed directly at your company, and more. 
   
   
   
  In this book you will discover a framework for understanding all of the pressures on modern corporations from the convergence of geopolitics, technology, and law; strategies for turning your company's legal department into a source of enduring competitive advantage; how to navigate government pressure for nationalism when you have a global footprint; approaches to winning in a world where courts are politicized and the law is increasingly automated, built on interviews with top experts; and ways to deal with the backlash to ESG at a company level. Perfect for executives, managers, and other business leaders, Unruly is also a must-listen for general counsels and advisors.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  In Ally Condie's Matched, the story follows Cassia, a young woman living in a seemingly utopian society where every aspect of life is controlled by the government. This includes who she will marry, her work, and even what she can read or listen to. The Society prioritizes order and efficiency and has eliminated most forms of art and free expression. However, Cassia begins to question the system when she experiences anomalies in the Matching process. Her grandfather’s death and his gift of forbidden poetry further fuel her desire for something more. She also forms a forbidden relationship with Ky, an Aberration, that sparks rebellion and a desire to understand and experience life beyond the confines of the Society. The novel explores themes of control, choice, and rebellion, as Cassia seeks personal freedom and a genuine connection in a world that values stability over individuality.

  The Right to Oblivion - Privacy...

  Lowry Pressly

  • 0

  We are able to configure privacy settings on our devices and social media platforms, but we know our efforts pale in comparison to the scale of surveillance capitalism and algorithmic manipulation. In our hyperconnected era, many have begun to wonder whether it is still possible to live a private life, or whether it is no longer worth fighting for. 
   
   
   
  The Right to Oblivion argues incisively and persuasively that we still can and should strive for privacy, though for different reasons than we might think. Recent years have seen heated debate in the realm of law and technology about why privacy matters, often focusing on how personal data breaches amount to violations of individual freedom. In a novel philosophical account, Pressly insists that privacy isn't simply a right to be protected but a tool for making life meaningful. 
   
   
   
  Privacy deepens our relationships with others as well as ourselves, reinforcing our capacities for agency, trust, play, self-discovery, and growth. Without privacy, the world would grow shallow, lonely, and inhospitable. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Hannah Arendt, Jorge Luis Borges, and a range of contemporary artists, Pressly shows why we all need a refuge from the world: not a place to hide, but a psychic space beyond the confines of a digital world in which the individual is treated as mere data.
