Former Clinton advisors on Internet policy issues, Ira Magaziner and
Christine Varney, are predicting that Congress will try, against opposition
by the Administration, to enact legislation regulating the privacy of
personal medical and financial records. In a talk to a trade association of
Web publishers, Magaziner urged the group to pre-empt government regulation
by doing a better job of self-regulation. "You'll have to fight government
attempts to regulate content on the Internet in a thousand different bills
this year. If you start getting effective self-regulation in place, you
will deflect a lot of bad legislation." (San Jose Mercury News 12 Jan 99)
