Recycling Law Boosts Hi-Tech Transfer.

Here is further evidence of the somewhat circular relationship between the law and technology whereby advancing technology begets the law which then begets the technology required to beget laws capable of dealing with some of the Hi-Tech Crimes mentioned in my last blog. Sachin’s comments expand upon that conundrum. I apologise in advance if this blog begets any headaches.

This BBC article: Recycling Law Boosts Hi-Tech Transfer, discusses the phenomenal waste disposal problem that hardware producers have created in their efforts to satisfy market demand for technology. Once again the result is a new law to deal with the problem. In 2008 this law will be in force in England and it will compel hi-tech manufacturers to find greener ways of making electronic goods and also recycle their own discarded products.
