The third annual LSBC Rule of Law Lecture took place on Tuesday, June 25, 2019 at UBC Robson Square. The speakers addressed subjects that become more relevant in Video Game Law every year. Among the vexing questions are “To Regulate or Not to Regulate?” and how privacy law fits (or not) in a digital world. Given that the speakers were the Right Honourable Beverley McLachlin, former chief justice of the Supreme Court of Canada, and Richard Peck, QC., the perspectives shared were particularly thoughtful. Mr. Peck’s succinct history of privacy law is masterful in illustrating its importance and limitations in a digital world where contractual consents (by way of video-game End User Licence Agreements in our case) are so easily obtained.
