Ask HN: Online Contract Law?
Is there a way to make contract law more straight forward? Something like computer code with explicit syntax.
And the natural segue would be, could one imagine a way to enforce these contracts online outside of any given court system? Perhaps a social contract abstraction on top of a given judicial jurisdiction.
I can't imagine this is a new idea.

- bertm 13y agoGreat! Thanks. It looks like his name may in fact be Daniel Katz. Is that the same guy?
- anigbrowl 13y agoYes, I misremembered, it's been a couple of years since I met him. Here's his blog, though you've probably found it already: http://computationallegalstudies.com/ http://computationallegalstudies.com/
