If you'd like to take part in your own micro-social network experiment (like we're trying at moss.haus), the EFF has a good primer on some of the legal responsibilities that could arise when hosting your own instance.
I, for one, had no idea about the DMCA agent requirement to qualify for copyright safe harbor protections. (Don't worry, it's only six bucks.)
