A federal clearing house would help separate the good and bad actors who deal in data.
"It’s time for a national data privacy law, one that gives consumers
meaningful rights — to know who has their data, how it is used and how
to opt out.
It’s in our country’s best interest to have a national standard that,
done thoughtfully, benefits both consumers and businesses by providing transparency, uniformity and certainty without deterring innovation and competition...
There is much work to do to ensure the
ethical use of information in our economy. With a concerted effort to
engage in mutual understanding, we can address consumer privacy on the
one hand, while supporting the inventive, valuable and responsible uses
of data on the other.
Jordan Abbott is the chief data ethics officer for Acxiom."
