The United States Congress may well enact privacy legislation that will be unlike the sector-specific legislation the nation has seen in the past or the Federal Trade Commission’s current deception and unfairness authority. It also will not be a GDPR clone. Instead, it will be comprehensive privacy legislation with some prior processes and subsequent enforcement, guidance on use beyond the public common understanding, and resources to initiate investigations.
