Got an Internet Business Law Question? Ask the IBLT!


The Touro Law Center for Innovation in Business, Law and Technology ("IBLT") proudly announces "Ask the IBLT," a new initiative to help entrepreneurs and others better understand the business-critical issues of Internet-related law and risk management. Anyone can e-mail a question to asktheiblt@tourolaw.edu. The IBLT will provide answers (prepared by Touro Law students and IBLT faculty affiliates) through its blog, YouTube channel, Google+ page, Facebook page, Twitter account and other channels.

Among the topics for questions for the IBLT are:

  • Privacy and data breaches
  • Social media use (and misuse)
  • Intellectual property (copyright, trademark, patent, trade secrets)
  • Online advertising and marketing
  • Affiliate programs
  • Sweepstakes, contests and other prize promotions
  • Cybercrime
  • Crowdsourcing
  • Crowdfunding
  • International law


"Ask the IBLT is just one part of our overall mission to educate our students and the business and legal communities about these new and evolving areas of law and risk," says Prof. Jonathan I. Ezor, director of the IBLT. "We can't answer every question, and we won't be giving specific legal advice. Instead, we're answering those questions that apply to the most organizations, and offering information and links to resources they can use to succeed and grow while avoiding the biggest pitfalls of doing business online."
