Explore innovative approaches to drafting technology legislation in this 20-minute conference talk from USENIX Enigma 2017. Discover how software engineering techniques like component-based architecture and modeling can be applied to improve the quality and effectiveness of laws addressing modern technology. Learn about the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act as an example of well-designed legislation that can serve as a "library" for future lawmakers. Examine the potential benefits of developing robust models to understand the interplay between existing laws and proposed changes. Consider how these techniques could become standard practice in legislative engineering to create more coherent, consistent, and forward-thinking technology laws.
