Tech chiefs ask US Congress to pass consumer privacy law
Bosses from 51 firms in total – including Salesforce, IBM and Amazon – spoke at a business roundtable recently, where they signed a letter to US congressional leaders urging them to put together “a comprehensive consumer data privacy law”.
Representing a wide range of industries, the chiefs said that federal law is needed to “ensure strong consistent protections for American consumers” and to allow “American companies to continue to lead a globally competitive market.”
