On this episode of the Practical Guidance Podcast, Data Privacy Series, we hear from attorney Kristen Bryan.  Bryan collaborated on the third Practical Guidance Data Privacy Podcast episode on the topic of BIPA. Kristin is an author for Lexis’ Practical Guidance and a partner with the firm, Squire Patton Boggs in their Data Privacy and Cybersecurity groups. Today, Kristen and I will be discussing the rise in privacy class actions being brought under antiquated theories of liability involving various internet based contexts.  We will explore the various state and federal wiretap and video privacy laws that are being relied upon by the plaintiffs and how the courts are reacting to these causes of action. Kristin's publications include the Lexis Practical Guidance article, The Biggest Privacy Developments of 2021 and Biometric Privacy and Artificial Intelligence Legal Developments.
