The Privacy Advisor Podcast: What's the status of that federal privacy bill?

It's clear at this point that the momentum has shifted in favor of a federal privacy bill in the U.S. The questions are: What will that bill look like, who will sponsor something both the tech community and advocates can live with, and will it actually happen this year? Joseph Jerome, CIPP/US, policy counsel at the Center for Democracy and Technology in Washington, has been dead center on the federal privacy bill debate for some time now and took a leading role at the CDT in drafting their own bill. In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, Jerome discusses the difficulties inherent in trying to pass a bill that pleases everybody — or at least one that the disparate and myriad stakeholders can live with.

The Privacy Advisor Podcast: Santa Clara County's CPO on building a privacy program from the ground up
In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, Michael Shapiro, CIPP/G, CIPP/US, chief privacy officer of Santa Clara County, talks about whether he thinks this is the year for a federal privacy bill, nudged perhaps by the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018. He also discusses building a privacy program from the ground up for an entire county, one that comprises so many different government entities (hospitals, police departments, social services) and with them so many laws and regulations with which to comply. Then there's the tension between, as a public servant, spending your time on compliance efforts and delegating some time to data use for the public good.

The Privacy Advisor Podcast: Live with FTC Commissioner Rohit Chopra

While Rohit Chopra is still relatively new as a commissioner at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, he's clear on his priorities. He wants stronger FTC enforcement across the board in "everything we do." In this episode of The Privacy Advisor Podcast, recorded in front of a live audience at Privacy. Security. Risk. 2018, Chopra talks to host Angelique Carson, CIPP/US, about his concerns related to American isolationism and keeping pace with the rest of the world on data protection and digital rights. "We’re increasingly feeling that other countries, particularly Europe, are in the lead," he said. He wants that to change.
