The software, hardware, platforms, and networks that we use every day are regulated by overlapping (and sometimes conflicting) sets of laws, policies, and norms. New technologies constantly create challenges and opportunities for policymakers, technology developers, and the general public, as they seek to understand and balance costs and benefits. Harvard Law faculty and students study the complexities at play in an effort to inform sound tech policy and encourage thoughtful innovation with an eye toward fairness and justice.
