FCC to vote on broadband privacy rules later this month. Proposed rules would require broadband providers to get customer permission before sharing data. FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler has scheduled a final vote on the regulations for Oct. 27. ISPs have complained the proposal puts stronger privacy rules in place for them than for internet companies like Google and Facebook. The rules would also require ISPs to take reasonable measures to protect the security of customer data. Some ISPs have protested the proposal, saying the rules are based on “a wrong-headed conclusion””]
