    Blockchain and NFTs-based Trades of Second-hand Vehicles

    Get PDF
    Recently, the automotive industry has been characterized by disruptive innovations, like self-driving cars or hybrid/electric engines. Despite this fact, some operations, such as the trade of second-hand vehicles, still continue to be carried out in the “traditional” way, in which the buyer has to trust the seller about the state of the vehicle. Several studies highlighted that odometer fraud alone could cost around 8.9 billion euros per year. In order to overcome these limitations, which are related to information asymmetries between buyers and sellers, in this work we propose to exploit blockchain technology to store a previous vehicle’s history in a transparent way. To further explore blockchain advantages, we also present how a decentralized second-hand vehicle market – enabling also automatic transfers of ownership upon monetary transfers – can be built, leveraging on Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). We propose an architecture and a practical implementation of a Decentralized Application (Dapp) and discuss the security of the proposed system, its costs, and future developments

    Court Review: The Journal of the American Judges Association, Vol. 57, No. 3

    Get PDF
    Court Review, the quarterly journal of the American Judges Association, invites the submission of unsolicited, original articles, essays, and book reviews. Court Review seeks to provide practical, useful information to the working judges of the United States and Canada. In each issue, we hope to provide information that will be of use to judges in their everyday work, whether in highlighting new procedures or methods of trial, court, or case management, providing substantive information regarding an area of law likely to be encountered by many judges, or by providing background information (such as psychology or other social science research) that can be used by judges in their work. Guidelines for the submission of manuscripts for Court Review are set forth on page 151 of this issue. Court Review reserves the right to edit, condense, or reject material submitted for publication

    Toward effective and ethical drug abuse prevention policies: The case against indiscriminate drug testing

    Full text link
    For an increasing breadth of organizational domains, a negative illicit drug screen result has become the final and paramount criterion for admission and/or continuing participation. Such a policy is vigorously promoted to the private sector by government and vendors of testing services as an inexpensive and vital tool for suppressing drug abuse. This policy, however, can been shown to be at once empirically unwarranted, methodologically dubious, constitutionally impermissible, and ethically unsustainable. Reducing the harm attributable to illicit intoxication is a legitimate and worthy social goal. The ends, however, cannot justify such means of indiscriminate and intrusive surveillance
