The high price of a cashless society: exchanging privacy rights for digital cash?
Article Abstract:
Congress must act to ensure that both privacy interests and law enforcement interests are served by the laws governing digital cash transactions on the Internet. Existing privacy laws are not adequate for addressing the particularities of information technology. The Internet's lax regulatory structure and culture is inconsistent with the level of security and privacy needed for commercial transactions. The statute should ensure anonymity for users, restrict third party access to financial information and limit law enforcement access by requiring probable cause.
