Your Uncle Theodore who runs an online advertising agency said to you: "I don't live in Europe or California, I live in Maryland. Why should I care about these laws? You're taking a business law class, explain how this impacts my company or me personally." (Please respond to Uncle Theodore.)

2. Three years ago, Uncle Theodore's company mined and sold his client's customer's personal information. It was clearly written in the fine print in the five page privacy policy. Was this ethical?

3. Uncle Theodore does not care for these laws. He thinks he should be allowed to self-regulate, rather than have these new privacy laws imposed on his business. Do you agree?

4. What do you think about the new privacy laws as a consumer?
