CFA Calls on Federal Communications Commission to Protect Privacy of Broadband Consumers

CFA TC

In a letter to Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler, CFA calls on the FCC to adopt rules that will provide meaningful privacy protections for broadband consumers. Because the United States currently lacks comprehensive privacy legislation or an agency dedicated to privacy protection, there are very few legal constraints on business practices that impact the privacy of American consumers. The FCC has the opportunity to fill this void. In light of the increasingly pervasive tracking practices of ISPs, it is imperative that the FCC take this opportunity to exercise the full extent of its rulemaking authority to protect consumer privacy.
