Bank That Suppressed WikiLeaks Gives It Up

Is It Obvious writes "Bank Julius Baer has moved to withdraw suit against Wikileaks. We've discussed this story a few times, most recently when the judge lifted his injunction against WikiLeaks' registrar. The Baer story reflects an issue that will only grow worse over time: the gap between technology and the legal system's understanding of said technologies and their application to established legal principle. Given the rapid rate of technological change, is there a more practical way to interface emergent technology with our legal system while retaining civil rights over corporate rights?"

Interface

I'd say a more practical interface is to plug the lawyers into something electrical and then turn it on.

Any dockyard that can take real ships will have this available.
Look for the shore power outlets and cables.
