Republican Senator Roger Wicker of Mississippi unveils draft consumer privacy bill. The bill would override various state laws on privacy, including the California Consumer Privacy Act. Wicker says hes willing to negotiate with Democrats on the details of a national privacy law. Bill would require organizations that collect consumers data to describe the processing purpose of a data, offer a detailed description of data retention practices and describe data security practices. It would require companies to obtain “affirmative consent” from consumers before selling their data.”]
