What Internet Service Providers Need to Know About the Law

Next week Mark Eckenwiler, a real lawyer in the criminal division at the US Department of Justice, will be discussing "What Internet Service Providers Need to Know About the Law" at the Blackhat Conference in Las Vegas. I've dealt with Mark before. He knows both the legal and technical stuff. ISP or exchange point operators may want to send either a technical or legal person to get a better idea what the DOJ thinks ISPs should know. Its one of those rare opportunities to try to get real answers to those perpetual mailing list topics. I hope his talk doesn't get yanked by DOJ due to the current carnivore flap. http://www.blackhat.com/ for more information.
