NOTICE: As of 14/10, the empress has officially been granted greater control of the government, including military and financial sectors. That is all, have a good day.

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless. Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you. | Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’James 1:26-27, Matthew 7:21-23

The law would be in and around things like email hacking, spying on people (not in a sexual way, just spying) and so forth
(mostly to do with controlling out of control journalists)
and preventing people from posting videos taken of people without their permission (where the person is the main subject of the video) and allowing people to sue or have them taken down etc.
But, as I said, for countries where the laws don't apply this would be problematic and probably cause issues.
And, as I think I pointed out, The Charter of Civil Rights, while a wonderful resolution, has kind of screwed most future resolution writers because it is so wide ranging, and the "you shall not discriminate" clause is unbelievably powerful

The other major problem is cross cultural differences. There are some topics that would never get looked at because some players are never going to take them seriously. The UK has strict laws about what papers can publish during on-going trials, yet if a WA resolution was suggested on that, I suspect most of the American players would go "huh?" and suggest it is an attack on democracy itself.
And there are also major problems because of the wide ranging governments. I was thinking about a privacy law : "Nations shall be required to pass laws that prevent the privacy of their citizens from being invaded, except where required the security of the state or (some other bollocks like that)" (I didn't say I had been thinking about it a lot!) but then you get to the psychotic dictatorships who would probably say "our citizens have no privacy from our great leader" (etc.) The law would be in and around things like email hacking, spying on people (not in a sexual way, just spying) and so forth (mostly to do with controlling out of control journalists) and preventing people from posting videos taken of people without their permission (where the person is the main subject of the video) and allowing people to sue or have them taken down etc. But, as I said, for countries where the laws don't apply this would be problematic and probably cause issues.
