Information Accountability Foundation Chief Policy Innovation Officer Martin Abrams wrote an op-ed discussing how to potentially tweak the proposed American Data Privacy and Protection Act "without changing its design in a fashion that might make passage more difficult." Abrams explained IAF devised a 10-factor criteria for evaluating the ADPPA based on considerations for consumer protections, data transfers to the U.S. and future-proofing provisions. Abrams also pointed to lessons learned from the EU General Data Protection Regulation that may help the U.S. "avoid the GDPR conundrum" with its legislation.
