This is a pro-privacy bill that would regulate business, and it's been
introduced by a Democrat in a Republican-controlled Congress with a
Republican president, at a time when privacy is out of favor. It's not
going to pass. (To me, of course, that's a bug, especially since I'd
rather that stronger privacy legislation were passed. But I'm not
holding my breath.)
