Texas A&M decides to invite a high profile band to perform during graduation week at Kyle...

Texas A&M decides to invite a high profile band to perform during graduation week at Kyle stadium since they anticipate a very high demand for entertainment during that time. After carefully considering Rolling Stones and Justin Bieber, the university decides that Rolling Stones are the better choice (no kidding!). The band agrees to perform at the modest price of $500,000 (paid after the concert). As a result of the agreement, the university sells $1,000,000 worth of tickets for the concert. Justin Bieber would have agreed to perform for $100,000, but would have generated only $400,000 in revenue. The university orders $20,000 worth of the band merchandise to give away in the weeks prior to the concert to advertise the event. They also spent $50,000 on an ice statue of the band positioned in front of the Evan's library that does not have any useful purpose besides looking cool. The day of the event, Rolling Stones cancels due to a rough night for the band partying in a local pub. The university is forced to reimburse people for their tickets and spends additional $200,000 to compensate out of town individuals for incidental expenses associated with attending the concert. The university sues the band for breach of contract.

You are hired to represent the university in the lawsuit. You insist that the appropriate damages for the university are expecation damages. What is the amount of the expectation damages to the university?

Given the reputation of the band, the court decides that opportunity cost damages are more appropriate in this case. What is the size of the opportunity cost damages? Assume that the $70,000 expense for the merchandise give away and the ice statue would not have been incurred if the university contracted with Bieber.

Suppose that the university is willing to settle for reliance damages. What is the amount of these damages?

The defense argues that the university's expense on the ice statue was unreasonable. They request the court to reward hypothetical expectation damages. If the court finds their argument convincing, what should be the amount of the hypothetical expectation damages awarded to the university?

Please read case and answer the question thank you.

Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, once proclaimed in an interview that the “age of privacy” had to come to an end. According to Zuckerberg, social norms had changed and people were no longer worried about sharing their personal information with friends, friends of friends, or even the entire Web. This view is in accordance with Facebook’s broader goal, which is, according to Zuckerberg, to make the world a more open and connected place. Many Facebook features are premised on this position. Supporters of Zuckerberg’s viewpoint believe the 21st century is an age of “information exhibitionism,” a new era of openness and transparency.Facebook has a long history of invading the personal privacy of its users. In fact, the very foundation of Facebook’s business model is to sell the personal information of its users to advertisers. In essence, Facebook is like any broadcast or cable television service that uses entertainment to attract large audiences, and then once those audiences are in place, to sell air time to advertisers in 30- to 60-second blocks. Of course, television broadcasters do not have much if any personal information on their users, and in that sense are much less of a privacy threat. Facebook, currently with almost 1.8 billion users worldwide, clearly attracts a huge audience.Although Facebook started out at Harvard and other campuses with a simple privacy policy of not giving anyone except friends access to your profile, this quickly changed as its founder Mark Zuckerberg realized the revenue-generating potential of a social networking site open to the public.

1.Do people who use Facebook have a legitimate claim to privacy when they themselves are posting information about themselves?

2. How will changing your settings on Facebook help protect your privacy?

3. How can you prevent your Timeline from being indexed by Google or other search engines?
