This book explores the regulation of emerging technologies. Developments such as bitcoin (based on blockchain technology), artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and other technical advances have the potential to revolutionize many aspects of everyday life. As with other significant occurrences, especially when coupled by financial rewards, there are the inevitable attempts to reap gains unlawfully. This book examines the legal and regulatory enactments that attempt to undermine the risks to society as well as the dangers to individual freedoms that the technologies present when abused by governmental and non-governmental authorities. Included are discussions of the dangers to the right of privacy posed by facial recognition, physical location tracking, automated license plate recognition (ALPR) and other evolving applications of technology. This book is an invaluable resource for those interested in the regulation of emerging technologies particularly as they relate to blockchain, artificial intelligence, and the most current advances in quantum computing. Emphasis is focused on invasion of privacy, particularly by government authorities, antitrust implications of private companies and the efforts of international entities to counter alleged abuses by them.
