Google announced in its blog today that Los Angeles has officially switched to using Google Apps for e-mail and collaboration. 34,000 city employees will now be using the Google cloud to do their work and, more importantly, their communication. This is a substantial development in cloud computing law. This will highlight the pros and cons of cloud computing for the future,and is likely to shape the success of other municipalities going the same way. Data issues and privacy litigation is likely to start popping up even more predominately related to the cloud. Plus the bloggers will get to continue to discuss the impact of Google taking over the technology world.
Overall, I think that cloud computing is the future, but as a technology legal counsel, I can't help but watch this development with youngster-like anticipation. As goes the cities, so goes the country. Keep your eyes on the horizon for developments from this jump by L.A.. The litigation that is possible from this decision by L.A. will be delectable.
