Study Finds that Larger Companies

Hayley Lattman is a senior commercial counsellor with the responsibility to review legal issues as they relate to accounting and taxes. As a lawyer working in the online retail industry, Hayley Lattman is always keeping up to date on the latest developments in the world of privacy and data laws as they unfold.

Researchers studying the rates of data protection law compliance in mid-2021 found that the larger a company is, the less likely it is to comply with data protection laws. The research was conducted by The DPO Centre, a leading data protection officer resource center based in London. They asked 400 data protection experts from various companies to rate their senior members on how well they felt the senior understood and carried out privacy policy in regards to data protection.

Almost uniformly, the largest companies in the UK (10,000 members or more) had the worst scores, showing a lack of accountability and engagement with issues of privacy. Further research found that the lack of engagement was replicated throughout the company’s structure, with junior members showing the same lack of interest in data protection. The researchers concluded that senior members of these larger companies were struggling to lead by example to the rest of the staff.

NHS VR Therapy for Social Anxiety



Hayley Lattman is an attorney who has worked in the online retail industry, where she provides counsel on legal matters and negotiations with third parties. Amongst other responsibilities, Hayley Lattman has been involved with product development of various virtual reality (VR) products and their applications in the real world.

The National Health Service (NHS) in the UK announced in March of 2020 that it would be using VR technology in a new treatment for social anxiety. The program, called “OVR Social Engagement, is designed to give patients suffering from social anxiety a safe space to tackle challenging situations like taking public transport on a crowded bus or interacting with strangers at the supermarket.

The patients can become immersed in these virtual scenarios with headsets and special gloves to give them a window of interaction, but they can pull out and take a break at any time if they feel overwhelmed. The goal is to use these safe spaces to practice coping techniques that can be applied in the real world. This innovation in VR technology is at odds with the mainstream assumption that VR technology is only good for entertainment such as gaming, but because of that it represents new avenues for investors or developers who want to work with VR.

The Shibori Fabric Dyeing Technique



An established New York corporate lawyer, Hayley Lattman (Geftman-Gold) has a focus on data marketing, website security, and privacy. One of attorney Hayley Lattman’s favorite activities is solving puzzles such as crosswords. She is also a crafting enthusiast.

One popular DIY fabric dying technique is shibori, a traditional Japanese technique that creates deep hues of indigo arranged in striking patterns. Several basic bundling techniques are used to create the traditional patterns of this craft, including kumo shibori, which involves binding a small object such as a river rock or dried black bean into the fabric.

The fabric wrapped over the object is gathered into a “finger” and bound in place using rubber bands. This basic step actually has a major impact on the ultimate design, depending on the tightness of bind, number of gathered “fingers,” and size of the rubber band.

Once the fabric is bunched and folded, it is dipped into a vat of indigo dye. Brief dips create a green color that turns into light blue over a 20-minute period of air exposure. At this point, you can dunk again and repeat the process as many times as you want to get the preferred shade of indigo.

Finally, rinse the shibori fabric until the water is clear running and unwrap it. The result should be a crisp design with a strong contrast between blue and white areas. The resulting patterns should be circular, like the pattern a rock makes when it hits a windshield.

About Rockstar's Upcoming GTA 6?



An accomplished lawyer with a focus on business-oriented technology law, Attorney Hayley Lattman (Hayley Geftman-Gold) holds a JD from Columbia University. In 2014, Hayley Lattman served as vice president of business affairs at Take-Two Interactive Software. In this role, she oversaw production-related transactions, including drafting and negotiating talent agreements, SaaS and cloud-based software agreements and licenses, and intellectual property licenses for the 2K and Rockstar video game labels.

GTA 5 was the most recent GTA game released by Rockstar Games. It is the second most popular video game of all time, trailing only Minecraft in terms of sales, and has recently surpassed the 150-million milestone. Though Rockstar Games has yet to reveal anything regarding GTA 6, fans anticipate significant graphical enhancements, as it is likely that Rockstar will use the power afforded by next-gen consoles to boost shader quality and game physics in GTA 6. Ray-tracing and ML-aided simulations are some predicted enhancements.

Fans are eagerly anticipating GTA 6, but speculations indicate that the game will not be released anytime soon. Rockstar Games is scheduled to release GTA 6 in 2023 at the earliest, but it might be as late as 2025.
