“The internet industry commends Congresswomen Eshoo and Lofgren for recognizing the urgent need for comprehensive federal privacy legislation and appreciates their hard work and commitment on this issue. More work remains to ensure all Americans get the strong, comprehensive privacy protections they deserve, while also safeguarding the U.S.’s position as a global leader in technology.
