EPIC Urges Senate to Back Comprehensive Communications Privacy Protection
EPIC has sent a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee in advance of a hearing on "Examining the Proposed FCC Privacy Rules." EPIC pointed to growing public concerns about the loss of privacy and the need to update federal privacy laws. EPIC explained that the neither Federal Communications Commission or the Federal Trade Commission has done enough to safeguard consumer privacy. EPIC warned that the "failure to modernize our privacy law is imposing an enormous cost on American consumers and businesses."
