SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE LAW: MORE GUIDANCE, LESS HYPE PRESENTED BY LACBA

A panel of experienced technology law practitioners (external and in-house) and regulators will cut through the hype over social media risks. Moderated by Tanya L. Forsheit. Founding Partner, InfoLawGroup LLP, this program will identify the laws and guidance, federal and state, that may be implicated by corporate, employee and consumer use of social media, analyze recent guidance from the Federal Trade Commission and proposed legislation on online behavioral marketing and the use of testimonials and endorsements online, discuss practical strategies for organizations to mitigate the risks associated with social media use for marketing, both public-facing and internal. Outline key components of effective social media policies, and explore a hypothetical dilemma in the social media space facing corporate counsel and regulators.
