  18. Hi all! Time for my #Introduction. I am a #LawProf who specializes in #TechLaw, #InternationalLaw, and #Torts.

    I've written on #AWS, #AI, #Cyber, #IoT, and various other topics, but my main concern now is highlighting how #IHL/#LOAC has no #Accountability mechanism to address accidents in war. My solution? #WarTorts (and its alternatives).
