Research

My PhD research was focused on the legal protection afforded to private information within the English legal system and the ways in which the protection afforded has been impacted by the growth of online communications and the generation, post web 2.0, of user generated content.  My research assessed the effectiveness of the law in this context and I argued that user generated content poses a challenge against which the current methodology of the courts in misuse of private information may be tested. 

In terms of post-doctoral and ongoing research, this revolves around various aspects of technology law, including the regulation of autonomous (self-driving) vehicles, smart technology and the degree to which criminal law may be invoked to deal with the more culpable forms of undesirable online content/communications.
