Subject: New York Will Soon Require Employers To Disclose Employee
Monitoring
by Natasha G. Kohne , Michelle Reed , Esther Lander and Lauren E. York
On May 7, 2022, private employers-regardless of annual revenue or
headcount-with a place of business in New York will have to provide
all newly hired employees with written notice of the employer's
electronic device monitoring activities (including monitoring of
employees' telephone, email and internet access or usage) thanks to a
new amendment to the Civil Rights Law (the "Act").1
Given the prevalence of remote work during the pandemic, electronic
monitoring and surveillance of employees has become increasingly
common. New York joins a handful of other states (including
California, Connecticut and Delaware) in creating a statutory scheme
specific to workplace monitoring.

Subject: Latest CFPB Lawsuit Sheds Light On Digital Dark Patterns
by Alexandra Megaris (Venable LLP) and Leonard Gordon (Venable LLP)
A lawsuit filed by the CFPB last week against a national credit
reporting agency provides some insight into the types of website
features and designs that regulators like the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau and Federal Trade Commission will target. As we
covered previously, digital dark patterns--or website design,
features, and interfaces used to allegedly deceive, steer, and
manipulate users--are a priority for both rulemaking and enforcement
actions by the FTC. Although the focus has been on website features
that "trick or trap" consumers into subscriptions, the potential for
broad and arbitrary application of this concept is worrisome. What is
the line between a website that is acceptably optimized for conversion
and one that is illegally steering users to make purchases?

Subject: What's New In 5G - May 2022
by Angela Y. Kung and Christen B'Anca Glenn
The next-generation of wireless technologies - known as 5G - is
expected to revolutionize business and consumer connectivity, offering
network speeds that are up to 100 times faster than 4G LTE, reducing
latency to nearly zero, and allowing networks to handle 100 times the
number of connected devices, enabling the "Internet of Things."
Leading policymakers - federal regulators and legislators - are making
it a top priority to ensure that the wireless industry has the tools
it needs to maintain U.S. leadership in commercial 5G deployments.
This blog provides monthly updates on FCC actions and Congressional
efforts to win the race to 5G.
