SLATE VI: Data Objects As Property?
SLATE VI (Seminars on LAw and TEchnology series) on 19 September 2024 was presented by Professor Kelvin Low, the leading expert on cryptocurrency and virtual assets. Prof Low started by describing the paper that is the subject of the talk, "Data Objects: New Things or No-Thing More than Ignis Fatuus", stemmed from the misapprehension amongst lawyers regarding the way technology works with regards to information in digital form, which the paper terms "data objects".

Nearly 25 years later, such proposals for better international regulatory oversight have yet to be realised.
