Breaking Down The White House Privacy Framework--A Video Blog

Here is a video discussion I had with LexBlog on the new White House Data Privacy report, "Consumer Data Privacy in a Networked World: A Framework for Protecting Privacy and Promoting Innovation in the Global Digital Economy." In this conversation, we discussed the report's four primary elements:

• a Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights,
• a multistakeholder process to specify how the principles in the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights apply in particular business contexts,
• effective enforcement, and
• a commitment to increase interoperability with the privacy frameworks of our international partners.

Specifically, in the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights, it provides for:

• Individual Control: Consumers have a right to exercise control over what personal data companies collect from them and how they use it.
