The Electronic Frontier Foundation is hosting another of its annual Web 2.0 "compliance" roundtables, a cheap one-day boot-camp for Web 2.0 startups looking to make sure that they end up on the right side of any lawsuits.

Does your interactive company have to contend with the maze of laws dealing with user privacy and publishing user content? Want to do the right thing by the online community that gives your business value, and still fulfill your legal obligations? Let us help. Our Mountain View Bootcamp will let front-line staff meet and question lawyers from the EFF and the top tech attorneys about the laws governing internet content, from the DMCA to ECPA to the CDA.

You can find out more information at our Bootcamp Page, or email to reserve your place. We have a sliding scale of $100-200 per person: space is limited, so sign up soon!
