FTC Chairman Speaks About Web, Privacy Policy
Over the weekend, C-SPAN aired its most recent installment of "The Communicators," which featured a half-hour discussion about Internet and privacy policy between FTC Chairman William Kovacic, C-SPAN host Pedro Echevarria and yours truly. Specifically, we chatted about how search engines use information to target advertising to users; mobile marketing; electronic health records privacy; and the future of enforcement with respect to spam and harmful Web enterprises. Kovacic also gave us a status report on the President's Task Force on Identity Theft, a multiagency panel created in 2006 to coordinate data breach policies across the federal government. The group is expected to release a major report this week that will lay out roughly 30 recommendations for sustaining government-wide momentum on the problem in the new administration and beyond.
