0. General Reference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_packet_inspection#DPI_at_network.2FInternet_service_providers e.g. Lawful Intercept

1. network neutrality -- lots of possible laws coming up, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_neutrality#Law_in_the_United_States http://www.sans.org/reading_room/whitepapers/policyissues/net-neutrality-rest-peace_33809

2. intellectual property -- all the sopa/pipa/etc. specifically privacy invasion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Online_Piracy_Act#Deep-packet_inspection_and_privacy

3. principle of implied responsibility -- if you change a data stream, it is implied you are responsible for it (i.e. administratively, editorially, etc.)

4. Check out the CISSP legal domain. Especially resources and references for it. Someone on your team should have this certification. http://www.amazon.com/CISSP-Boxed-Set-All---One/dp/0071768459/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1337865477&sr=8-1

5.  The EFF might be able to help you.  WRT Privacy espec.

6.  SANS has tons of references.  www.sans.org

7. Get with a lawyer who is network-aware. Good luck with that. Maybe try to find a lawyer with a CISSP cert?

Hello,

I am looking for some guidance on full packet inspection at the ISP level.

Is there any regulations that prohibit or provide guidance on this?
