Sen. Brown Sponsors ‘Do Not Track’ Legislation
WKBN – Senator Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, is co-sponsoring “Do Not Track” legislation that would allow Ohioans to decide whether their information can be collected by websites and mobile applications.
The legislation also would let them determine how online companies can use their personal information, or track their movements online. The new legislation would give internet and Smartphone users, including victims of domestic abuse and stalking, the ability to prevent anyone from collecting or tracking their personal information, including their whereabouts.
“I wanna see individuals who care about their privacy protect their privacy, having the ability to protect themselves and make sure technology works for them, not against them,” Brown said.
