The Internet and social media have become a big part of our everyday life, and an unprecedented amount of information – from movies, music to pictures and personal data – is easily accessible online.  Despite this ubiquity, most Internet users are often unaware of the legal implications of their actions in cyberspace.

One SMU academic who tracks the developments of this dynamic field is Associate Professor Warren Chik from the SMU School of Law.

In this podcast, Associate Professor Chik shares his insights into the trends and developments in the areas of copyright and personal data protection – two legal domains which have immediate and direct impact on almost every Internet user today.
