"Big Tech is trying to use federal privacy legislation to override state laws, much like Big Tobacco attempted to undercut state smoking restrictions in the 90s."
"Both industries employ strategies such as muddying the waters with multiple weak bills and asking for preemption to weaken local protections during public relations crises."
"Preemption allows federal law to negate state laws, which Big Tech aims to exploit to create lower privacy standards, exacerbating public concerns."
"Efforts to preempt state privacy from Big Tech should be met with resistance; a national privacy standard must not limit state responses to emergent privacy issues."
