Host Georgetown University law professor paul ohm, is law keeping up with technology . Guest its trying its darnedest, but like with a lot of us, its really hard to keep up with technology. And is so, you know, we have different areas of the law, constitutional law, statutory law, but at the end of the day, the shifts, the changes, the different ways we communicate, you know, the same things that befuddle just your average american has begun to also confuse lawyers and the legal system and judges in kind of disruptive and profound ways. Host is it because technology is changing so quickly, or is it because law is not changing guest well, its interesting, its a little of both. I mean, law is an ancient tradition, right .
