The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated a long-standing problem in postsecondary education: the competition for student attention in a world full of more interesting distractions. This problem is magnified in the teaching of the ethical legal and social implications of new and emerging technologies ("ELSI") where the technologies are often complicated, the legal concerns esoteric and non-intuitive, the social issues non-obvious, and the ethical analysis constantly shifting. To teach students in a time where they are both physically and mentally distant from the educator, this Essay aims to provide a solution that appropriates the distractions and repurposes them into the educational process. More than just using media as a crutch for learning, we should place it at the center of the course and as the source from which all the other learning evolves. Black Mirror-the British anthology series that is just steps ahead of our current timeline with regard to emerging technologies-is a perfect lynchpin for such a course. Herein, this Essay describes the purpose of such a course, as well as additional aspects of the curriculum-including socially distanced interviews with stakeholders within the science-fiction film industry. My goal is to provide students with the necessary skills to not only examine emerging technology through the ELSI lens, but to inculcate them with the appreciation that everything, even simple television, can be a learning opportunity.

Blockchain technology has great potential to reshape the financial industry. However, the existing policy and regulatory regimes fail to provide a supportive environment for blockchain technology to fulfill its potential. In this Article, I propose technology-enabled co-regulation as a new approach to blockchain implementation, especially in the financial markets. This approach has two distinctive elements: a collaborative environment and a technology-enabled mechanism. A collaborative environment consists of regulatory and industry sandboxes in which regulators and industry representatives can experiment with novel ideas. A technology-enabled mechanism is empowered by regulatory technologies (“RegTech”) and supervisory technologies (“SupTech”) that support compliance with regulatory and reporting requirements and facilitate supervisory obligations. This technology-enabled co-regulation can help to achieve policy and regulatory goals: a fair and efficient market, financial stability, consumer and investor protection, law enforcement efficiency, and, most importantly, technology innovation. Technology-enabled co-regulation is preferable to traditional commandand-control regulation and self-regulation. Its collaborative and technological elements are also more advanced than a simple co-regulation is. To reach this conclusion, this Article conducts an impact assessment of proposed regulatory options. The impact assessment consists of five analytic steps, asking the following questions: (1) what problems have emerged from existing policies and regulations? (2) what are the objectives of the proposed regulations? (3) what are the regulatory options? (4) what are the possible impacts? (5) how do the options compare? * Dr. Jiaying Jiang, Hauser Global Fellow at New York University School of Law. I greatly appreciate comments and feedback from faculty members and fellows at the NYU Hauser Program, NYU Information Law Institute, and Privacy Law Group.
