At Bennet Kelley's ILC Cyber Report: Full Text of FTC Privacy Proposal.

Bennet Kelley's Internet Law Center has provided a summary and the full text of the long-awaited Federal Trade Commission report released Monday. See this link. Expanding on the preliminary staff report it issued in December 2010, the FTC has called on companies handling consumer data to implement recommendations for privacy protection that features:

(i) "privacy by design",

(ii) giving consumers a “simple, easy way to control the tracking of their online activities”, and

(iii) greater transparency so that consumers can access data collected on them.
