  75. <p id="speakable-summary">Can lightning strike twice? That’s apparently the question being raised today with the public introduction of the next social app built by Instagram’s co-founders, Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. The duo launched a new venture to explore social apps, according to a report published in <a href="https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/31/23579552/artifact-instagram-cofounders-kevin-systrom-mike-krieger-news-app">The Verge</a>, which includes the debut product <a href="https://artifact.news/">Artifact</a>, a personalized news reader.</p>
  76. <p>The app itself is not yet publicly available but offers a waitlist where interested users can sign up. As described, it sounds like a modern-day twist on Google Reader, a long-ago RSS newsreader app that <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2013/03/17/focusing-on-the-google-reader-shutdown/">Google shut down back in 2013</a>. Except in this case, Artifact is described as a newsreader that uses machine learning to personalize the experience for the end user, while also adding social elements that allow users to discuss articles they come across with friends. (To be fair, Google Reader had a similar feature, but the app itself had to be programmed by the user who would add RSS feeds directly.)</p>
  77. <p>Artifact will first present a curated selection of news stories, The Verge’s article notes, but these will become more attuned to the user’s interests over time. Some of the articles will come from big-name publishers, like The New York Times, while others may be from smaller sites. Other features include separate feeds for articles posted by people you follow alongside their commentary and a direct message inbox for discussing posts more privately.</p>
  78. <p>The concept seems as if it has some overlap with one of Twitter’s bigger use cases around discussing news. It also arrives at a time when Twitter users are considering new options after the app’s acquisition by Elon Musk, who has chaotically made numerous and sometimes controversial changes to the app’s roadmap and policies, alienating some longtime users in the process.</p>
  79. <p>But as described, Artifact doesn’t sound completely original either — not only does it seem like a modern twist on a Google Reader-type experience, it would go up against various other news reading apps, both new and older, which include personalization elements, like <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/12/13/magazine-app-flipboard-adds-support-for-original-content-and-conversation-with-new-notes-feature/">Flipboard</a>, SmartNews and Newsbreak. It also sounds similar to the <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2021/10/06/matter-raises-7-million-series-a-to-build-a-better-reading-app/">Pocket competitor Matter,</a> which offers a combination of news reading, curated recommendations and comments. Even <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/11/03/substack-targets-twitter-with-launch-of-discussions-feature-substack-chat/">Substack has capitalized on Twitter’s destabilization</a>, launching a way for its readers and writers to chat in-app. That means no matter how polished or differentiated Artifact may become, it could still face a host of competition in the market, where consumers also already have built-in news apps available with Apple News and Google News.</p>
  80. <p>Of course, the new app would also compete in many ways with the social giant Meta, which Instgram’s founders left back in 2018. Facebook and to a lesser extent, Instagram and WhatsApp, today serve as portals where billions interact and engage with news and information, amid their updates from friends, family, groups, and businesses they follow.</p>
  81. <p>According to The Verge’s report, the duo believes the recent leaps made in machine-learning technology could help give Artifact an edge, however, similar to how algorithmic recommendations have played a role in elevating TikTok to become a dominant app.</p>
  82. <p>But while TikTok’s personalized For You feed is arguably addictive, the video app’s growth was seeded by record-breaking marketing spend on its user acquisition efforts — even reaching $1 billion per year in 2018, <a href="https://mobiledevmemo.com/tiktoks-billion-dollar-secret-that-wasnt/">The WSJ had reported</a>. A startup, even from remarkable founders, may not have the same fuel to throw on the fire. And news reading in and of itself seems to be a bit of a passé market to chase in an era when younger Gen Z users are often now turning to entertainment apps like TikTok to stay informed on news and world events, too.</p>
  83. <p>That said, it’s difficult to count out the success of those who built Instagram, which was one of the largest social tech acquisitions of its time and has shaped the way the world engages with social media.</p>
  84. <p>As an early-stage product, Artifact is still being developed and is not yet monetized, but a revenue share with publishers was mentioned as a possible option. (<a href="https://digiday.com/media/facebooks-paying-publishers-directly-new-normal/">Where have we heard that one before</a>?)</p>
  85. <p>The app’s individual success may or may not ultimately matter, though given the founders intend on testing other new social products through their new venture, it seems.</p>

  102. <p>When people usually think of bankruptcy, they usually think about it as a last resort response to large debts, mortgages they are behind on, and fatigue from the daily hounding of so many unknown numbers. The realization that student loan debt is not dischargeable by bankruptcy likely steals sleep from a good faction of our reader base too. If Johnson &amp; Johnson hadn’t just faced a legal setback, it would have been at the top of many a corporate person’s bankruptcy associations.</p>
  103. <blockquote>
  104. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-0">A U.S. appeals court on Monday shot down Johnson &amp; Johnson’s <a class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__medium__1kbOh text__large__nEccO link__underline_default__2prE_" href="https://www.reuters.com/companies/JNJ.N" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-testid="Link">(JNJ.N)</a> attempt to offload tens of thousands of lawsuits over its talc products into bankruptcy court. The ruling marked the first major repudiation of an emerging legal strategy with the potential to upend U.S. corporate liability law.</p>
  105. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-1">J&amp;J is among four major companies that have filed so-called Texas two-step bankruptcies to avoid potentially massive lawsuit exposure. The tactic involves creating a subsidiary to absorb the liabilities and to immediately file for Chapter 11.</p>
  106. </blockquote>
  107. <p data-testid="paragraph-1">Our avid readers will know that we last covered this ploy <a href="https://abovethelaw.com/2022/09/whose-remedy-is-it-anyway-the-future-of-product-liability-could-depend-on-it/">here</a>. Thousands of folks are suing Johnson &amp; Johnson on the claim that the use of their talcum powder has given them or their loved ones cancer. Weird thing about talc, it and asbestos are besties. If the appeals court would have granted J&amp;J’s attempt to head to bankruptcy court, it would have ushered in copycat stratagems where liability-facing companies would have been able to shift liability to a smaller entity, hit the “oh no bankruptcy” button, and save themselves potentially massive amounts of cash in payouts.</p>
  108. <blockquote>
  109. <p data-testid="paragraph-1">The court ruled the healthcare conglomerate improperly placed its subsidiary into bankruptcy even though it faced no financial distress. J&amp;J’s two-step sought to halt more than 38,000 lawsuits from plaintiffs alleging the company’s baby powder and other talc products caused cancer. The appeals court ruling revives those lawsuits.</p>
  110. </blockquote>
  111. <p data-testid="paragraph-1">The cunning part of J&amp;J’s legal strategy was their attempt to frame the bankruptcy offloading as <em>being in the customer they allegedly gave cancer’s interest</em>. Given the fact pattern, if there was a time that two-stepping bankruptcies would have been a thing, this would have been it. See if you buy J&amp;J’s argument:</p>
  112. <blockquote>
  113. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-12">New Jersey-based Johnson &amp; Johnson, valued at more than $400 billion, said its subsidiary’s bankruptcy was initiated in good faith. J&amp;J initially pledged $2 billion to the subsidiary to resolve talc claims and entered into an agreement to fund an eventual settlement approved by a bankruptcy judge.</p>
  114. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-13">“Resolving this matter as quickly and efficiently as possible is in the best interests of claimants and all stakeholders,” J&amp;J said.</p>
  115. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-14">A three-judge panel on the appeals court rejected J&amp;J’s argument, finding the company’s subsidiary, LTL Management, was created solely to file for Chapter 11 protection but had no legitimate need for it. Only a debtor in financial distress can seek bankruptcy, the panel ruled. The judges pointed out that J&amp;J assured that it would give LTL plenty of money to pay talc claimants.</p>
  116. <p class="text__text__1FZLe text__dark-grey__3Ml43 text__regular__2N1Xr text__large__nEccO body__full_width__ekUdw body__large_body__FV5_X article-body__element__2p5pI" data-testid="paragraph-15">“Good intentions – such as to protect the J&amp;J brand or comprehensively resolve litigation – do not suffice alone,” the judges said in a 56-page opinion. “LTL, at the time of its filing, was highly solvent with access to cash to meet comfortably its liabilities.”</p>
  117. </blockquote>
  118. <p data-testid="paragraph-1">You know what they say — the road to offsetting corporate liability via two-stepping is paved with good intentions. The path is not completely blocked though; the company has already stated that it plans to challenge the ruling. Whatever the outcome, I hope that a speedy resolution is met for the sake of those who could have been negatively impacted.</p>

  167. <p class="speakable-content"><em><strong>UFC Hall of Famer Choi Doo-ho is back in action after a three-year lay-off at UFC Vegas 68 against Kyle Nelson.</strong></em></p>
  168. <p class="speakable-content">The <a href="https://fansided.com/mma/">UFC</a> returns to the UFC APEX on Saturday, Feb. 4th with <a href="https://fansided.com/2023/01/28/ufc-vegas-68-derrick-lewis-sergey-spivak-card-start-time-channel-guide/">UFC Vegas 68</a>, where a pair of heavy hitters meet in the main event. Both Derrick Lewis and Sergey Spivak will be looking to land a devastating blow that signals the end for their opponent, with Lewis aiming to stay in the top 10 with a victory. Spivak, meanwhile, hopes to climb up the heavyweight rankings with a huge win over the UFC’s knockout record holder.</p>
  169. <p>Another man looking to make a statement is non-other than UFC Hall of Famer Dooho Choi (14-4). <a href="https://fansided.com/2022/04/09/mma-twitter-reacts-cub-swanson-vs-doo-ho-choi-hall-fame-announcement/">Inducted in 2022 for his back-and-forth war against Cub Swanson back in 2016</a>, Choi has not fought since December 2019 and is looking to snap a three-fight losing streak against Kyle Nelson (13-5). The fight is scheduled to be the second fight on the main card and it is likely to be in contention for the Fight of the Night bonus.</p>
  170. <h2 class="speakable-content">Can Dooho Choi bounce back from his three-fight losing streak after a three-year layoff?</h2>
  171. <p>This fight should be much bigger than it is given that the card was originally scheduled to take place in Choi’s home country of South Korea. Instead, he will have to make the trip to Las Vegas in a bid to snap his three-fight losing streak against a fighter in a similar situation. Kyle Nelson is 1-4 in the UFC since signing back in 2018 and is currently riding a two-fight losing streak. While Choi has the privilege of being a UFC Hall of Famer, don’t be surprised to see the loser of this fight cut from the promotion given their respective losing streaks and the killer-infested water that is the featherweight division.</p>
  172. <p>Either way, to expect anything else than an exciting, back-and-forth bout is discouraged given Choi’s willingness to always put on a show. He has received a bonus in each of his last five fights, including a three-fight-of-the-night bonus streak. Add his impressive power, with 11 of his 14 victories coming by way of knockout, and it’s easy to see how Choi will electrify yet another fight card. Win or lose, the UFC Hall of Famer will surely put on a show.</p>

  220. <div>
  221. <p id="speakable-summary">Big Tech take note: In what looks like a meaningful — and long overdue — reforming step, the European Commission has committed to dial up its monitoring of how data protection authorities at the EU Member State level enforce the bloc’s flagship data protection rules — committing to regular checks on “large scale” General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) cases.</p>
  222. <p>Checks that could help address long standing criticism that enforcement of the GDPR is too weak and plodding to put meaningful checks on Big Tech.</p>
  223. <p>The EU’s executive <a href="https://www.iccl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/FOLLOW_UP_202200097_20230124_122005.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">has responded to its ombudsman</a> saying it will ask all national supervisory data protection authorities to share with it a report — on a “bi-monthly” basis (presumably that’s every two months, rather than 2x per month in this context); so 6x per year — which it describes as “an overview of large-scale cross-border investigations under the GDPR”.</p>
  224. <p>Furthermore, the Commission stipulates these reports will need to include various key details (such as case no.; controller or processor involved; investigation type), along with a summary of the investigation scope (“including which provisions of the GDPR are at issue”); the DPAs concerned; “key procedural steps taken and dates”; and the “Investigatory or any other measures taken and dates.</p>
  225. <p>It has also committed, in its second upcoming report on the application of the GDPR, to provide a report of the information it’s getting back from DPAs. So the Commission will be reporting on the DPAs’ reporting.</p>
  226. <p>While this probably sounds exceedingly dry, it’s actually — potentially — a very big deal.</p>

  231. </div>
  232. <p>Thing is, major cross-border GDPR cases have <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/03/14/dpc-sued-google-rtb-complaint/">languished for years in regulatory limbo</a>. Such as complaints against Big Adtech business models and behavioral advertising, or over adtech giant <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2020/02/04/googles-location-tracking-finally-under-formal-probe-in-europe/">Google’s almost impossible to avoid location-tracking</a>, to name two.</p>
  233. <p>There’s also a very long-running complaint that’s <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/08/11/facebook-europe-shut-down-delay/">called for the suspension of Facebook’s data exports</a> which still hasn’t landed as a final decision. While Apple, Twitter and TikTok all have open GDPR cases pending decisions — in some instances years after an enquiry was opened on paper.</p>
  234. <p>EU privacy campaigners and legal experts have <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2018/04/18/data-experts-on-facebooks-gdpr-changes-expect-lawsuits/">for years</a> argued that — on paper — the GDPR <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2020/01/17/privacy-experts-slam-uks-disastrous-failure-to-tackle-unlawful-adtech/"><em>should</em></a> be protecting consumers from unwanted tracking and profile. Yet they’ve also pointed out these self-same rules are being systematically flouted by tech giants that think they’re big enough to ignore the rules.</p>
  235. <p>The upshot is EU citizens’ rights are steamrollered under the market muscle of major tech platforms and their associated ecosystems of operators — which critics contend extends to regulatory capture of ‘friendly’ DPAs. Especially in certain Member States where there’s a concentration of big tech firms (such as Ireland). Hence the call for closer monitoring of how (or even whether) Member State level authorities are doing the job of enforcing GDPR.</p>
  236. <p>Just today, for example, an <a href="https://op.europa.eu/en/publication-detail/-/publication/8b950a43-a141-11ed-b508-01aa75ed71a1/language-en?WT.mc_id=Searchresult&amp;WT.ria_c=41957&amp;WT.ria_f=5702&amp;WT.ria_ev=search&amp;WT.URL=https%3A%2F%2Fop.europa.eu%2Fen%2Fweb%2Fgeneral-publications%2Fjustpublished" target="_blank" rel="noopener">EU report on digital advertising and privacy</a> concludes there’s “a<span style="font-size: 1rem; letter-spacing: -0.1px;"> need to increase individuals’ control over how their personal data is used for digital advertising, including how they avoid unwanted targeting” — which points to a gap between EU regulations that it too emphasizes “should” be protecting consumers from such abuse — yet, <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2022/02/02/iab-tcf-gdpr-breaches/">very evidently, they aren’t</a>.</span></p>
  237. <p>The issue here is simple: It’s who’s watching the watchmen, argues Dr Johnny Ryan — a senior fellow at the Irish Council for Civil Liberties (ICCL) — the rights group which complained to the European ombudsman over the Commission’s monitoring of Ireland’s implementation of the GDPR.</p>
  238. <p>The Commission has treaty obligations to monitor Member States’ implementation of pan-EU laws but has often seemed reluctant to wade into the fray. And it’s this reluctance to crack an eyelid over plodding DPAs the ICCL challenged via the ombudsman back in November 2021.</p>
  239. <p>That complaint has now led to agreement from the Commission that it will improve how it’s keeping tabs on GDPR enforcement more generally (so not just keep specials tabs on Ireland). And led to what looks to be, per the above list, a solid basis for overseeing DPAs administration of their duties — and at least putting the EU’s executive in a position to identify inconsistencies or other investigatory shenanigans.</p>
  240. <p>(Whether the Commission will act robustly on reports that will be confidential is another matter; but at least it won’t be able to pretend problems don’t exist — and it also knows that its watchman, the ombudsman, is on its case with eyelids open.)</p>
  241. <p>In a <a href="https://www.iccl.ie/digital-data/europe-wide-overhaul-of-gdpr-monitoring-triggered-by-iccl/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">press release</a> today, the ICCL lauds the development — dubbing the Commission move a Europe-wide “overhaul” of the GDPR.</p>
  242. <p>“The European Commission’s new commitment should transform Europe’s data and digital enforcement,” argues Ryan in a statement. “Previously, big cases lay dormant for years. Now, we should see acceleration in investigation and enforcement, and it will be clear where the European Commission needs to take swift action against Member States that fail to apply the GDPR. This heralds the beginning of true enforcement of the GDPR, and of serious European enforcement against Big Tech,</p>
  243. <p>“I think it makes the GDPR real,” Ryan also told TechCrunch — adding that if the Commission’s changes also apply retrospectively, i.e. to the large existing slate of Big Tech cases, that’ll be “even better”.</p>
  244. <p>Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) typically attracts the most criticism over its approach to GDPR. Not only for how much time it may take on an enquiry but whether it even actually investigates the issue being complained about.</p>
  245. <p>One oft complained about tactic is for the regulator to follow up a complaint (or complaints) by opening up what it refers to an “own volition enquiry” — which allows it to set the terms of reference. And, critics contend, to narrow the scope and/or entirely avoid the crux of a complaint. Creative reframing of enquiries is the ‘straw man’ of regulatory (in)action — deflecting and rerouting the claimed scrutiny in a way that can sidestep the core issue and ensure any damage to the target business is kept to a minimum. In short, it’s a mockery of genuine oversight.</p>
  246. <p>A recent example is a <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/19/whatsapp-gdpr-breach/">decision against WhatsApp</a> by the DPC — some 4.5 years after a series of complaints were raised over the legal basis Facebook-owner Meta claims to run behavioral advertising across a number of its services.</p>
  247. <p>The Irish regulator ended up being instructed by the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) to find a series of breaches of the GDPR — some of which it alone had declined to find in its preliminary decision on the complaint back in 2021– but in one of its final decisions, against WhatsApp, the DPC was accused by the complainants of not investigating a core element of its complaint: i.e. whether WhatsApp processes users’ metadata for ad targeting (and, if so, whether it has a valid legal basis for doing that).</p>
  248. <p>The DPC did not investigate that issue and also ignored a follow-on instruction by the EDPB to investigate it — claiming the Board was overreaching its jurisdiction. It also said it would challenge that component of the Board’s instruction in court. So instead of robustly investigating the legality of Meta’s ad-targeting — which had been raised by complaints dating all the way back to May 2018 — the DPC simply chose not to look — doing so at the end of a very long enquiry process where it also had the opportunity to investigate and didn’t. (And that’s just one instance of scores of complaints about its ’round-the-houses’ approach to ‘enforcing’ GDPR.)</p>
  249. <p>Over that same set of complaints, the Irish regulator was also <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/19/meta-ads-noyb-epdb-gdpr-complaint/">accused of further letting Meta massively off the hook</a> — by not fining it the maximum amount possible for failing to have a valid legal basis for its core behavioral ads business.</p>
  250. <p>The days of regulatory dither and ‘creative inaction’ by EU Member States which may feel they have a political interest in not annoying Big Tech companies headquartered on their soil may — finally — be numbered if the Commission starts to do a proper (i.e. active) job of overseeing DPAs’ GDPR enforcement.</p>
  251. <p>The Commission should care about this. And not just because of its core duty to uphold EU treaties — but also because the GDPR is a cornerstone of a far wider and more ambitious digital regulatory program it’s been setting out in recent years; laying out wide-ranging rules for data governance and data reuse with the aim of accelerating regional innovation in artificial intelligence.</p>
  252. <p>So if the GDPR is shown to not be working that risks bringing the whole carefully constructed EU digital edifice crumbling down — and at a time when the Commission is taking on a major new oversight role for larger platforms and tech giants (via the Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act).</p>
  253. <p>Which means the EU’s executive has plenty of very good reasons to d something about the problem of failed GDPR enforcement. Far better than any superficial PR wins it may want to accrue by claiming GDPR enforcement is working just fine.</p>
  254. <p>Still, some question marks over this reforming step remain.</p>
  255. <p>As well as the question of whether the Commission’s changes to how it will monitor GDPR enforcement will apply retrospectively (or not), there’s a more basic question of when exactly this new world order will be implemented? For now, that’s not clear.</p>
  256. <p>EU citizens have already spent years waiting to see action on GDPR complaints — having to watch tech giants continuing to enrich themselves at the expense of their rights in the meanwhile. So there really is no time to lose for the Commission to locate a higher gear here. However when we asked it when it will be implementing the changes — and whether they will be retrospective or not — a Commission spokeswoman declined comment.</p>
  257. <p>There is also a question over how exactly the Commission will define “large scale” in this context — and whether or not its reporting requirements will capture all cross-border GDPR cases, or just a subset.</p>
  258. <p>Furthermore, there could be some wiggle room for regulators to reach non-public agreements with tech giants, i.e. as another route to cynically closing GDPR cases down (and end any reporting requirements in the process).</p>
  259. <p>But given all the criticism over (and attention on) lax GDPR enforcement already, DPAs surely can’t hope to try their luck with a fresh repackaging of inaction — not unless they are actually extracting meaningful reforms in an agreed resolution with a company targeted for complaints. (And, well, if they’re achieving the latter no one would need to complain!)</p>
  260. <p>The EU’s ombudsman reached its <a href="https://www.iccl.ie/news/eu-ombudsmans-decision/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">decision</a> on the ICCL complaint in December — after a year long enquiry.</p>
  261. <p>In an <a href="https://www.iccl.ie/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/DECISION_202200097_20221219_150752.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">eight-page decision</a> on whether the Commission collects sufficient information to monitor Ireland’s implementation of the GDPR, Dr Emily O’Reilly wrote that “EU citizens are entitled to expect that the European Commission collects sufficient information to monitor the application of that legislation”.</p>
  262. <p>She went on to welcome the fact she found the Commission reportedly receiving “bi-monthly” reports from the DPC on the handling of “big tech” cases but suggested there was room for more improvement — such as maintaining a table of “pre-determined fields” containing key details and key steps taken, as the Commission has now committed it will.</p>
  263. <p>If it were not to apply this “specific targeted monitoring measure”, the Ombudsman concluded she “would have had serious doubts as to the adequacy of the information that the European Commission relies on”. So, again, there’s not going to be any way back from this formalized monitoring process for the Commission — a standard is being set and required.</p>
  264. <p>In a separate GDPR enforcement related development the Commission mentioned in its work program last year, it has also said it will be presenting a proposal to improve cooperation between data protection authorities on cross-border GDPR cases — so further changes are afoot which may help tackle delays kicked up by disputes between DPAs who fail to agreed on how to enforce against tech giants.</p>
  265. <p>Again, there’s no concrete timings attached to this development — beyond a pledge from the Commission to come with a proposal this year. (But it would then need the other EU institutions to weigh in and agree any changes.)</p>
  266. <p>Never one to waste a PR opportunity, in a joint speech this week, the EU’s president, Ursula von der Leyen, and justice commissioner, Didier Reynders, pitched the move as the Commission wanting to “further strengthen the enforcement of the GDPR”, as they spun it — writing that, working together with the EDPB, they’ve “started looking into ways to further enhance cooperation in cross-border cases”, and “will present a proposal this year to further harmonise relevant procedures for DPAs”.</p>

  285. <p><img decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-370832" src="https://abovethelaw.com/uploads/2015/04/money-pay-raise-dollar-growth-chart-300x200.jpg" alt="Dollar growth chart" width="300" height="200"/>Most law firms aren’t in the process of laying off associates.

While we have no reason to believe the layoff bug will spill over to the rest of the law firm landscape, even limited layoffs cast a pall over the industry.</p>
  286. <p>But while law firms nervously eye the future, Alternative Legal Services Providers are lighting cigars with $100 bills.</p>
  287. <p>The latest iteration of the <a href="https://www.thomsonreuters.com/en-us/posts/legal/alsp-report-2023/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Alternative Legal Services Providers 2023 Report</a> compiled by the Thomson Reuters Institute in partnership with The Center on Ethics and the Legal Profession at Georgetown Law and the Saïd Business School at the University of Oxford reveals that ALSPs now make up $20 billion of the legal market. That represents a compounded annual growth rate of 20 percent from 2019-2021.</p>
  288. <p><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-934243" src="https://abovethelaw.com/uploads/2023/01/Screenshot-2023-01-31-at-10.17.57-AM.png" alt="Screenshot 2023-01-31 at 10.17.57 AM" width="1754" height="848"/></p>
  289. <p>Of course, this pales in comparison to the $800+ billion total legal market, but it’s all in the growth. Demand for legal services remains stagnant and clients will only countenance fee hikes for so long. ALSPs have a greased runway to start soaking up business.</p>
  290. <p>And while most of that business flows to independent ALSPs and the Big Four always loom in the background, the fastest growing segment of the ALSP world are the “law firm captives,” the internal ALSPs law firms have built to keep business in house.</p>
  291. <blockquote>
  292. <p>Law firm captives, while the smallest part of the ALSP market, are also the fastest growing of the groups. Law firms create captives in multiple ways: with a tight integration (often via an acquisition or equity stake) with an independent ALSP; through an incubator or accelerator for technology-enabled service providers; or by starting a new company or line of business within the parent firm. Such entities now account for about $1 billion in revenues, showing 117% growth since our last report and a CAGR of 47%. Since 2015, the captive market has grown by 589%.</p>
  293. </blockquote>
  294. <p>Even without keeping the business inside the firm, the report notes substantial increases among both large and midsize law firms citing ALSPs helping them retain clients.</p>
  295. <p>It’s not all good news though. Corporate law departments already using ALSPs are divided on where they plan to go from here with 21 percent planning to increase ALSP spend, while 22 percent are either decreasing spend or are unsure. Still, that’s likely a net increase when all is said and done and the report also notes that law departments that don’t currently use ALSPs have increased interest in doing so.</p>
  296. <p>There’s a lot in this report, but the primary takeaway is that if there were ever a battle between law firms and ALSPs for work, that’s over. The strategic challenge of the next decade is figuring out which industry players — law firms, in-house, accounting firms — best leverage ALSP concepts.</p>
