Introduction
Natasha counsels clients on platform regulation, digital safety, human rights, and user data privacy.
Natasha Amlani focuses on creating risk avoidance approaches to global online safety laws, with a focus on content moderation, product, and transparency reporting requirements.
Natasha has also led these efforts in-house, on secondment, where she led a platform company's compliance efforts with the European Union's Digital Services Act and content laws in South Korea, the United Kingdom, and Turkey, among other markets. This included representing the provider before regulators regarding global content regulations.
Natasha also helps online communications providers address cross-border data disclosure issues and build data disclosure programs, including in relation to government surveillance and legal process demands for user information. In domestic and international settings, she advises on requests for online user data that implicate laws such as the federal Stored Communications Act and constitutional protections such as the First Amendment. She also has experience representing providers in court concerning civil and criminal demands for user data.
Helping providers keep children safe online, Natasha counsels on compliance with mandatory child safety reporting statutes, reporting to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. She has also advised on emerging state, federal, and global child safety regulations.
