Eric Goldman (born April 15, 1968) is a law professor at Santa Clara University School of Law. He also co-directs the law school's High Tech Law Institute[1] and co-supervises the law school's Privacy Law Certificate.

Career

[edit]

Goldman was an assistant professor at Marquette University Law School, General Counsel of Epinions.com, and a technology transactions attorney at Cooley Godward.[citation needed] He then joined the faculty at Santa Clara University.

Goldman was part of the first wave of teaching Internet Law courses in law schools, having taught his first course in 1995–96.[2] He has testified before Congress on the Consumer Review Fairness Act,[3] Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA),[4] and Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA).[5] In a well-publicized December 2005 post to his Technology & Marketing Law Blog, Goldman incorrectly predicted Wikipedia's demise in five years.[citation needed] Goldman has co-authored (with Rebecca Tushnet of Harvard Law) the first Advertising & Marketing Law casebook for the law school community.[6]

He has been shortlisted as an "IP Thought Leader" by Managing IP magazine[7] and named an "IP Vanguard" by the California State Bar's Intellectual Property section.[8]

Goldman publishes the Technology & Marketing Law Blog, which covers Internet Law, Intellectual Property, and Advertising Law.[citation needed] The blog was named to the ABA Journal's Blawg 100 Hall of Fame.[9]

Goldman oversees DoctoredReviews.com, a website designed to combat doctors' efforts to suppress patients' reviews,[10] serves on the board of directors of the Public Participation Project, a group lobbying for federal anti-SLAPP legislation[11] and coauthored an amicus brief in the 1-800 Contacts, Inc. v. WhenU.com, Inc. case with the Electronic Frontier Foundation.[12]
