Federal Trade Commission releases final version of its report on online consumer privacy. FTC calls for a do-not-track tool that would enable users to opt out of data collection. FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz: “The best companies already follow the privacy principles laid out in our report” The agency is also calling for data security legislation and a law that would create new rules concerning transparency and choice for data brokers, a set of companies that are deeply involved in the exchange of consumer information online, but largely operate behind the scenes.”]
