Legal Risks in the Digital Age: Social Media & Net 2.0

If in the Boston area or can be, check out a McLane sponsored program on November 17th, 2010 in Woburn that explores the legal risks in the digital age. 

The opportunities presented by new digital media such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and other social media tools, create significant legal risks for businesses.  Employers need to be proactive in this time of rapidly expanding technology to guard against the misappropriation of confidential information, harassment of employees via digital media, and danger that employees will waste time playing with these new toys.  Employers also need to implement policies to ensure that they have the right to review employees' use of these technologies at work without infringing anyone's privacy.
