Please read and answer very carefully.

You want to select a specific website, software license, e-contract, or law on which to conduct a legal analysis. The proposal should include a brief discussion of the broader issues the paper will consider, and then introduce the specific website, software license, e-contract, law that you will use for your legal audit. You should create research questions outlining what you would like to learn about your research topic, what your legal audit will focus on, and why these areas of interest are important for someone interested in IT and internet law (for example, "Does the website's copyright section fulfill the OCILLA safe harbor requirements?" "Has the website been involved in any litigation about privacy? Copyright?" "Does the law infringe on our freedom of speech?).

Some interesting terms and conditions to explore are:

-TikTok,

-Zoom,

-Proctorio,

-Twitter,

-Internet of Things devices.

Some current and recent legal issues around information technology and policy that would be interesting to research are:

-The continued concerns about Section 230 of the CDA, which the Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen suggested should not cover social media algorithms. This law was lambasted by former President Trump who wanted it repealed.

-The U.S. government's concern over national security and Chinese companies. A couple of years ago this exhibited itself in a concern over federal employees using the app TikTok on their work computers and phones because of potential data sharing between the company and the Chinese government (a topic around security and surveillance) and the government's desire to have a non-Chinese owner for the app in the U.S. This week the U.S. government banned China Telecom from offering service in the U.S.

-The Canadian Supreme Court's decision that Google must delink a particular website around the world rather than simply in Canada (a jurisdictional topic).

Proposals must identify a minimum of 9 potential academic and/or legal articles/books/sources, provided in a bibliography (APA or MLA style). Court cases and law review articles can be located either on Nexis Uni, which includes a law database, or through targeted library searches. Proposals should be at least 600 words, without bibliographic references
