Is It Obvious writes "The New York Times is reporting that Bank Julius Baer has moved to withdraw suit against Wikileaks. Apparently the First Amendment is still good for something. Now if we could just get the rest of the Constitution enforced. 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?"
