There is a proper replacement waiting in the rows, but it has been supposed that the U.S House of Representatives have voted to roll back the privacy rules of FCC and let internet providers sell your browsing history without getting your proper permission. Marsha Blackburn (Tennessee Representative) has presented a bill and named it Browser Act. It will restrict both internet and content providers such as Google and Facebook to get your proper permission prior to sell your browsing data. They will not be able to discontinue your service whether you reject their permission request for data. These steps will theoretically satisfy both privacy advocates including those telecoms who consider that ISP-only regulation of FCC is unfair, for example AT&T. But, there are still some serious areas that might anger both sides.
It was supposed that the bill would restrict both the FCC and States from implementing very similar online privacy regulations. The Internet Association represents the likes of Google, Twitter, Facebook and Amazon and concerned the bill. The Association said that it upend the consumer experience online and choke innovation. Whether it is true, the advertisers might be unhappy and sites thriving on selling data might not be pleased. Some telecoms may be disappointed due to any regulation preventing to sell their data. It isn’t sure that proposal of Blackburn will come up for a vote or let alone to get the signature of U.S President. The anti-regulatory environment would make it more difficult to pass any bill for proposing out-of-limit proposes.
