CompTIA DC Fly-In Agree
The Time for Federal Action is Now
With GDPR in Europe and new privacy laws in Brazil and California, companies are now facing a patchwork of state privacy laws along with developing international patchwork. Panelists discussed the major compliance burden this puts on businesses and negative impact on consumers. This makes it more urgent than ever for Congress to take the critical next steps in passing comprehensive federal privacy legislation.
5G Is a Geopolitical Issue
The United States was the first country to deploy and adopt 4G wireless, allowing it to reap numerous economic benefits and become the global leader in technology. Competing against the US for dominance in the next generation of wireless is China, which despite infrastructure challenges, is establishing 360 cell sites a day – 12 times faster than in the US. The race to establish 5G is not just technological – it is a race that will determine which country will have political and economic dominance in the years to come.
Consensus Around Key Principles
While there are some disagreements about what national privacy legislation would entail, there are several key areas where industry, consumers, and policymakers agree. This includes for companies to adopt safeguards to ensure the information they gather is secured, build privacy and security protections into their products at the development stage, and provide easily accessible and understandable information to consumers about the data they are collecting and how it’s being used. Panelists also emphasized that companies should take proactive steps to adopt these measures and publish privacy principles of their own rather than waiting on government to take action.
