DAVID H. BERNSTEIN: OK, welcome back, everybody. I hope you had a good lunch break. We are now going to pick up on a topic that we talked a little bit about this morning with Judge Koeltl and the NAD and FTC panel, which is surveys. Surveys are critically important in [UNINTELLIGIBLE] litigation. In court, they're really required. As you heard from Judge Koeltl, in the absence of a survey, he wasn't even going to consider what claims might be implied. ...

Tracking consumers online is both standard and controversial. Nearly every consumer-facing website and app collects and uses this type of data, and there are hundreds of vendors out there to assist them. As technology has advanced, so have the business models. The data collected - often just anonymous unique identifiers and segments of potential interest - are used for advertising, personalized content, and analytics and site optimization. ...

But another benefit of being the chair of a program is other than only having to speak for half of a session, which is great, is you get to decide the order of the program.

And this is based on the ...
