Overview

Legal and Ethical Issues of Live Streaming explores the potential legal and ethical issues of using live streaming technology, citing that although live streaming has a broadcasting capability, it is not regulated by the Federal Communications Commission, unlike other broadcasting media such as radio or television. Without this regulation, live streaming is opened up for broad use and misuse, including broadcasts of horrifying incidents such as the mass shootings at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand in 2019, sparking outrage and fear about the technology. Contributors provide a pathway to move forward with ethical and legal use of live streaming by analyzing the wide spectrum of critical issues through the lens of communication, ethics, and law. Scholars of legal studies, ethics, communication, and media studies will find this book particularly useful.

Reviews

Legal and Ethical Issues of Live Streaming is indispensable to properly understanding the social impact of live streaming. While the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic has seen live streaming surge in popularity, it has for at least a decade had a significant role to play in some of the most important political and social events in the world. This book provides the necessary foundation for understanding this technological phenomenon in its ethical, legal, and, ultimately, human context. It asks the right questions and provides solid answers about the consequences of live streaming for individuals, communities, and the larger world around us. -- Steve Jones, University of Illinois at Chicago
