Students will be able to:
- Discriminate between nonsensical and sound information on legal issues in the media
- Discriminate between opinions about the law and the force of ‘legal effect’
- Conduct own research in the ‘sources of law’, and to develop valid legal argumentation
|
|
- Do human rights apply on the internet?
- Is a video sharing platform such as YouTube responsible for copyright infringement if somebody uploads an unlicensed copy of a new movie?
- When do Silicon Valley companies have to comply with European data protection law?
- In the hunt for terrorists, is the state allowed to monitor people’s internet use?
These types of questions are discussed during the course Law for computer scientists. The course offers an introduction to law, with a focus on what is relevant for designing, protecting and using computing systems. We give special attention to legal argumentation, and to the difference between private law, public law and criminal law. We discuss, for instance, copyright enforcement on the internet, data protection and privacy law, and freedom of expression.
In the master course of ‘Law in Cyberspace’, similar issues are discussed at a more advanced level.
