The bipartisan American Privacy Rights Act (APRA) focuses on restricting data collection by companies, allowing user data control, and creating a national registry for data brokers, aiming to provide more transparency and control to consumers.
Despite past struggles, Congress is closer to enacting federal data privacy legislation. The latest proposal addresses concerns over state-level rules and introduces a possible legal recourse for privacy violations.
APRA strengthens user privacy rights, prohibiting Big Tech from unauthorized data tracking and manipulation for profit. It emphasizes the importance of Americans having control over their information and aims to address longstanding privacy concerns.
The draft language of APRA is crafted to be more robust than existing laws, potentially easing the worries of policymakers regarding preempting state privacy protections. States are still allowed to enact their own privacy regulations.
