Question-does anyone know whether under the anti privacy

GOP internet bill, Can a foreign government buy your internet history like for example Russia?

1. The law in effect before the GOP acted is the same as the law after the GOP acted

That's because there were no FCC rules governing Internet privacy until the FCC adopted them in late October and those rules have not gone into effect and, once the repubs (who dissented from the adoption of those rules) took control of the FCC there was no chance those rules ever would go into effect.

This sucks, of course.

2. Do not mean to be dense but does no rules mean that a hostile foreign power

Has access to us citizens health info (maybe mental health hx) and everything else?So is the info available to highest bidder-if so that seems like a disaster to our security.

3. As of today, internet privacy is dead. Congress killed it.

Senate voted last week. House slammed in the final nail of the coffin this morning. I thought these guys worked for us?

4. It died on election day.

More specifically, it died on March 1 when the FCC put a hold on the effective date of the rules adopted last October.

6. Actually-- available for sale to All Bidders

That is also why Cambridge Analytica & programs like it are dangerous......

Your ISP can sell every piece of info it can gather... to anyone & everyone.....

Cambridge Analytica profiles social media users

Ads & news stories are tailored to your habits & preferences

That means that lots of "back doors" exist...
Providing access for programs having legitimate objectives as well as those having nefarious ones.

When selling other people's personal data is profitable & has no real oversight because it is legal.... there will be no limit to the types of information being "acquired".

The recent trends in SMART everthing have opened up the door for unlimited data collection by service providers & hackers alike....

Unfortunately.... all the big players in 45's Kremlin Klan are as heavily invested in technology/ telecommunications/ cyber infrastructure as they are Oil & Real Estate....
so now not only are we subject to mass coercion via social media bots commandeering the newsfeeds convincing authentic media outlets to unknowingly report biased/fake info.
we will also soon be subject to individual attacks on our bank accounts, investment / retirement accounts , property ownership records, tax histories, insurance/medical histories, energy/water consumption records, billing & credit accounts.....

When there is no transparency & no regulatory oversight, it is only a matter of time before all of the various "service providers" are owned by just a few well connected oligarchs.....
capable of invasion, disruption, and asset seizure anywhere in the world ... from the comfort of their luxury yachts.

8. Is this law "retroactive I wonder?

That would not surprise me at all.
