Die Wissenschaftler Charles Kao, Willard Boyle und George Smith wurden 2009 mit dem Nobelpreis für Physik ausgezeichnet, weil die drei 'Meister des Lichts' wesentlich zur informationstechnologischen Revolution beitrugen, die unsere heutige Medienwelt ausmacht. Die von Kao perfektionierten Glasfaserkabel übertragen Telefon- und Internetdaten in riesigen Mengen zwischen den Kontinenten hin und her, während die von Boyles und Smith erfundenen CCD-Bildsensoren Licht in elektronische Signale umwandeln, sodass Fotos von Digitalkameras elektronisch verarbeitet über Kabel auf dem Computer gespeichert und dort angesehen werden können. Dieses Buch bietet einen Überblick über die drei Nobelpreisträger und die Zusammenhänge von Faseroptik, Glasfaserkabel und optischer Kommunikation sowie CCD-Bildsensoren, Optoelektronik, Pixel und Digitalkameras.

Die Kartellverfahren der letzten Jahre befassten sich vermehrt mit der digitalen Wirtschaft und hatten Strafen in Milliardenhöhe zur Folge. Dabei behandelten sie Sachverhalte, die potenziell einen grossen Einfluss auf das alltägliche Leben haben. Folglich ist es wichtig, Grundsatzfragen, die für die Behandlung dieser Fälle unabdingbar sind und das Verfahren in eine entsprechende Richtung leiten können, einheitlich zu beantworten. Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt hier an; die digitalen Märkte weisen spezielle Eigenschaften auf, weshalb sich die neuen Wettbewerbsverhältnisse nicht mehr nahtlos in das traditionelle Konzept der Kartellrechtsprüfung eingliedern lassen. Diese Dissertation untersucht die besonderen Charakteristika dieser Märkte und schlägt allgemein anwendbare Methoden für das Kartellverfahren vor. Sie präsentiert eine neue Herangehensweise, mit der die Behörden – ähnlich wie in «traditionellen Märkten» – die Fälle der digitalen Wirtschaft schematisch mit demselben Standard beurteilen können. Zunächst setzt sich diese Arbeit mit den bisher vorgeschlagenen Ansätzen der Marktabgrenzung in der Plattformökonomie kritisch auseinander, bevor sie ein eigens erarbeitetes und allgemein anwendbares Konzept für die Marktdefinition vorschlägt. Anschliessend widmet sich diese Dissertation der Marktbeherrschung. Dabei untersucht sie auch die relative Marktmacht sowie die kollektive Marktbeherrschung. Diese Erkenntnisse dienen als Bindeglied zwischen den Untersuchungen zur Marktabgrenzung und den Analysen zu den Kopplungsgeschäften. Schliesslich wird die Bedeutung der vorgeschlagenen, allgemein anwendbaren Ansätze am Beispiel der Kopplungsgeschäfte aufgezeigt.

Digital Earth – Cyber threats, privacy and ethics in an age of paranoia Whether it's the next big ransomware attack or cyber terrorism, digital threats have evolved drastically in recent years. Issues surrounding phishing, misinformation, cyber terrorism, physical security, and privacy continue to arise for both individual users and large enterprises. With technology an intrinsic part of our everyday lives, we need to be aware of digital threats, and be able to identify other threats such as phishing, ransomware, and spyware before they can wreak havoc in our professional or personal lives. This book discusses the most prevalent technological threats that we face today. It is an accessible guide that highlights the most common cyber attacks, and explores data ethics and privacy in an age where we hold so much of our PII (personally identifiable information) online. It covers cyber threats such as phishing, disinformation versus misinformation in a post-COVID-19 world, cyber terrorism, and the power of social media, and analyzes ever-evolving privacy concerns in response to technological advances. For example, does the use of drones by law enforcement offer us complete security or raise questions around the privacy of citizens? The book focuses on: - The spike in phishing amid the COVID-19 pandemic - Cyber terrorism - The risks associated with social media - Whether drones are a search-and-rescue solution or the all-seeing eye in the sky
