Honored and proud to be recommended as a top midsize firm for our commitment to #diversity by Discord. Advertising, Marketing & Public Relations Co-Chair Terri Seligman is individually recognized. 🌟
We believe that team members and outside counsel with diverse perspectives make the Discord Legal department stronger. We request diversity reports from our outside counsel, detailing actual hours and fees billed. This approach allows us to assess whether our matters are being staffed diversely more effectively than whole-firm statistics or a static list of timekeepers. 🏆 Based on reports from our outside counsel in 2023, we are proud to recognize and recommend the following firms for their exceptional commitment to diversity: 🇳🇱 [Large Firm] Berend van der Eijk and the Bird & Bird (Netherlands) team have been our most trusted partners on everything privacy and more in Europe, offering quick, practical advice grounded in a deep understanding of our product, providing flexible staffing arrangements, and connecting us with local counsel across Europe. 🕹️ [Midsize Firm] Terri Seligman and the Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz team provide us practical, clear, and efficient advice on advertising related matters, including operating a commercial co-venture and drafting our initial paid Quest template. ™️ [Boutique Firm] Stephen Coates and the Coates IP team bring a wealth of in-house experience to provide practical, cogent, and relevant advice on trademark, copyright, and enforcement matters, serving as a force multiplier for our small (but mighty!) IP team. We look forward to sharing our Law Firm Diversity recognition and recommendations again next year. #lawfirm #diversity #legal #discord

OOPS! The California Senate passed AB 3048 yesterday, requiring browsers and mobile operating systems to support Opt-Out Preference Signals. Once the Assembly passes this amended version as expected, the Governor will have until Sept. 30 to sign. Initial takeaways on the Frankfurt Kurnit Klein & Selz Technology Law Blog: 💥An OOPS is defined to not only communicate a consumer's request to opt out of the sale or share, but alternatively also their request to limit the use of a consumer's sensitive personal information. This expansion was not previously included in the regulations but was contemplated in the statute. 📱 Mobile OS: the CPPA is tasked with another regs package, this time updating its requirements and technical specifications for an OOPS in sec. 7025, etc. for the mobile context. There will always be rulemaking. 💰 Choice screens, pop-ups, settings? How the OOPS is designed may impact ad monetization on the scale of Apple's ATT framework or Google's Advertising ID program. It remains to be seen how OOPS will interact with these existing frameworks.
