IANAL, and I might be misreading the law (http://www.synergistech.com/1706.shtml http://www.synergistech.com/1706.shtml), but the way I understand it is that if non-tech company A needs some tech work done, and they hire tech service company B to get it done for them, company B is not allowed to farm out that work to individual contractor C without treating C as an employee for tax purposes. So if you're an independent contractor and you get your own business, you should be fine. If someone knows this to be incorrect, please let me know. EDIT: nevermind me, read grellas comment.
