Winston & Strawn's Amelia Garza-Mattia was quoted in a Law360 article discussing a closely watched U.S. Supreme Court case addressing the scope of the Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA). The case follows the Sixth Circuit dismissal of a proposed class action brought by a Paramount Global newsletter subscriber who alleges that the company unlawfully shared users’ personal information with Facebook. After the Sixth Circuit found that the plaintiff was not a “consumer” under the VPPA because he did not subscribe to audiovisual content, the Supreme Court agreed to review the decision.

Flash loans are a subset of smart contracts where uncollateralized loans are made to a buyer and re-paid in the same series of transactions. Flash loans represent essentially risk-free arbitrage opportunities; for example, if a cryptocurrency is being traded for $1 on one exchange and for $2 on another, a savvy trader can use smart contracts to take out a flash loan of $100 worth of the cryptocurrency on the first exchange, sell it for $200 on the second exchange, repay the loan, and pocket the extra $100 as profit as part of a single instantaneous transaction. Flash loans are usually risk-free for lenders as well; if there is no contract executed to return the amount loaned, the initial loan will never be made.
