New Edition: Social Media and the Law 

Social Media and the Law (2026 Edition) examines the use of social media in various legal contexts, such as privacy, civil litigation, employment, criminal activity and prosecution, intellectual property, defamation, advertising, and regulated industries. This treatise discusses relevant legislation, court opinions, usage trends, and industry responses.  

Highlights of this new edition include:  

  • Chapter 6, Employment and Workplace Issues, covers an additional finding from the National Labor Relations Board in which a plaintiff’s social media posts regarding her workplace conditions were considered concerted activity and therefore covered by Section 7 of the NLRA 
  • Chapter 9, Crimes, Prosecution, and Evidence, addresses the signing of the TAKE IT DOWN Act (Tools to Address Known Exploitation by Immobilizing Technological Deepfakes on Websites and Networks Act) into law, covering the requirements of social media sites and apps to establish notice and removal procedures. This chapter also covers a recent federal district court decision that suggests using AI for legal communicans may waive attorney-client privilege and expose those communications in litigation
