This coalition letter, signed by the ACLU, urges the Federal Communications Commission Chairman, Tom Wheeler, to swiftly commence with a rulemaking to protect the privacy of broadband consumers. The letter urges the FCC to move forward as quickly as possible on a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking proposing strong rules to protect consumers from having their personal data collected and shared by their broadband provider without affirmative consent, or for purposes other than providing broadband Internet access service. The rules should also require broadband providers to clearly disclose their data collection practices to subscribers, and allow subscribers to ascertain to whom their data is disclosed.
