Ep. 26: SPECIAL GUEST - High Court Vet Andy Pincus Talks Big Digital Privacy Cases

The Supreme Court is set to weigh two privacy cases this term that could be game changers, including one about personal cloud data stored overseas and another about search warrants for cell phone location data. Andy Pincus, a partner at Mayer Brown who has argued 27 cases before the high court, joins the show to break down the cases and what impact they could have. Also on this week’s show, we run down a big copyright case over illegal downloading; we offer updates on several stories from previous episodes, including Congress making it harder to sue banks, a $417M Talc cancer verdict, and HSBC traders behaving badly; and we discuss Johnny Depp’s latest legal battle - a suit he’s filed against his own lawyers.
