Are You An Online Service Provider?
Are you an online service provider (an OSP)? The definition of an OSP in the Digital Millennium Copyright Act includes any “provider of online services or network access, or the operator of facilities therefor.” The Electronic Communications Privacy Act defines two types of OSPs: “electronic communication services” and “remote computing services.” If you are an OSP, or think you might be, make sure you understand your rights and responsibilities. Visit http://www.eff.org/wp/osp, and talk to counsel about how to protect yourself.
