  • Abstract
    The recent English Court of Appeal case of Google v. Vidal-Hall raises three issues for many Internet-based businesses: whether they can be sued in tort for misuse of private information, whether browser-generated information is defined as personal data, and whether compensation for emotional distress without accompanying financial loss can be awarded.
