IEEE ComSoc SCV Talk: "Engineers' Role in Internet Law Development"

By Eric Goldman

Last week, I gave a talk at a meeting of the IEEE Communications Society, Santa Clara Valley chapter. I don't often get the chance to speak to a group of engineers, so I decided to go in a little different direction than my normal talks.
