. “What is Access.” Consider what the author means by
(a) a “virtual” perspective on access (a “narrow” understanding pursuant to which many events would not constitute access), as opposed to
(b) a “physical” perspective on access (a “broader” understanding: many of those same events would constitute access) (pp. 31-33).
Do you think it odd that the statute does not more particularly define “access” by choosing one or the other of the two views? Which of the two would you recommend?
NOTE: perhaps the use of “virtual” v. “physical” (rather than simply narrow v. broad) is not the best choice of words but it is not uncommon, and you should be able to understand that there are at least two perspectives on access. The notion of a narrow v. broad perspectives recurs in the notes at pp. 35-38 and perhaps especially at note 6, p. 38.
