EDITOR'S NOTE

Good morning,

Big data is challenging Australia's legal notions of copyright, confidentiality and privacy.

If you need proof, look no further than Google's attempt to mirror and centralise bushfire maps and emergency alerts. A stoush with the Victorian and Western Australian state governments means their data won't be included.

For much more detail on the implications, download our latest independent research report on the legal challenges of big data, authored by law firm Shelston IP. The new report is free to iTnews readers.
