Consumer Organizations Write in Support for The Children and Teens' Online Privacy Protection Act

CFA TC

Consumer Federation and several consumer advocacy organizations wrote in support of bringing up the bipartisan Children and Teens' Online Privacy Protection Act (S. 1418), known as COPPA 2.0, in the Senate Commerce Committee as quickly as possible to follow that with a vote on the Senate floor this year. America’s children and families have waited too long already for stronger data privacy protections. COPPA 2.0 makes needed changes to the now 25-year-old law to protect kids and teens on the internet as it looks today. For example, it would expand protections to teens under 17 years old, limit the amount of data companies can collect from kids and teens, and ban targeted advertising to all covered minors.
