Welcome to the September 2010 edition of Shepherd and Wedderburn's IT and Data Protection E-bulletin.
 
In this edition we discuss an IT case in the Court of Appeal examining what types of loss are covered by the term direct loss in an exclusion clause; and report on an interesting case forcing a website to reveal the identities of anonymous posters of defamatory messages.
 
We also report on the current position in relation to the reform of European data protection law to which the UK government is seeking views; and finally we provide a round up of the latest FOI developments including a consultation into the possible extension of the Freedom of Information legislation in Scotland.
