And finally, a note from our founder, Alex Shahrestani:
“The Journal of Law and Technology at Texas has been a labor of love and a labor of will. From its beginnings as a meeting at a local bar between half a dozen people, to the current network of practitioners and business people who have personally invested in the success of this project, a lot has transpired over the past three years.
Our first year was a flurry of activity to gain traction, from presenting on self-driving cars and the law at SXSW, to hosting speakers from the Electronic Frontier Foundation, we did everything we could to become buzzworthy. Our second year included securing authors, hosting our own panels, presenting student research on cybersecurity for law firms, fundraising, and competing in the Cyber 9/12 policy competition in Washington DC. Coming in just beneath the Naval War College in the final round was a turning point for JOLTT. Our third year included hosting our first ever symposium, launching JOLTTx.com, stepping up our involvement in the community, and now publishing this first edition of the journal.
With much accomplished and much to look forward to, there are many people to thank, from professors to practitioners, mentors and friends, with special thanks to Ed Cavazos, Kay Firth-Butterfield, Derek Jinks, Bobby Chesney, EFF-Austin, Casey Baker, and the many others who have helped along the way.
Sincerely,
Alex Shahrestani
Founder
