The Center for Democracy & Technology (CDT) has announced its endorsement of a revised model state comprehensive privacy bill developed by the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) and Consumer Reports. This updated legislation emphasizes data minimization, civil rights, and includes a private right of action.
According to CDT, the compromise model bill "properly focuses on strong data minimization, civil rights protections, and includes a private right of action." The organization believes that states adopting this law will effectively safeguard the privacy of their residents.
For more details, individuals are encouraged to read the full model bill.
