The ninth Annual Georgetown Law Advanced E-discovery Institute opened with a provocative keynote address from J. Trevor Hughes, president and CEO of the International Association of Privacy Professionals, about the the quickly expanding realm of privacy issues in the digital age. The two-day continuing legal education program was held at the Ritz-Carlton Tysons Corner in McLean, Va., near Washington, D.C.

Hughes dramatically illustrated his presentation with images ranging from fine art to YouTube, to drive home the nuances of how privacy issues permeate our legal world — and how the subtleties can have many unexpected consequences. “Privacy issues are complex — my privacy is not your privacy,” said Canada-born Hughes. He framed his discussion around Daniel Solove‘s book, Understanding Privacy, which offers a taxonomy of the varieties of privacy issues that now affect our global interactions. (Solove is a law professor at the George Washington University Law School.)
