Today's Story Highlights

Cloud Providers Look for Legal Loopholes to Protect Customer Data
U.S.-based providers of e-commerce resources, including cloud services,
must release foreign-held customer information to law enforcement
agencies under a new law. Providers have strongly objected to releasing
customer information residing outside the U.S. for fear of violating the
privacy laws of other countries. The providers noted a potential
"staggering" loss of international customers.

SCOTUS Opens Stalls for Online Sports Bettors
Hundreds of millions of dollars soon could start flowing into online
betting emporiums due to a U.S. Supreme Court decision allowing states
to regulate sports wagering. "Right now there's a tremendous black
market for illegal, offshore sports book being offered to U.S.
citizens," said Matthew Kalish, CRO of DraftKings. "We think it's in the
range of $150 billion being waged that way right now."

NICE Bot Wants to Take Over Employees' Most Tedious Tasks
NICE has debuted its NICE Employee Virtual Attendant, or NEVA, a process
automation bot powered by the company's desktop automation technology.
With chatbot capabilities, NEVA "is designed for both front- and back-
office employees," said NICE VP Oded Karev, head of advanced process
automation. Employees can use NEVA either to execute a complex business
process or inquire about a process.
