This week, Jerry and Jody are joined by leading consumer advocate, India McKinney, to hear her views on the prospects for national privacy legislation and explore the increasingly important voice that consumers and their advocates have in shaping the debate about the content of legislation at both the state and federal levels. Among the issues discussed are whether a federal law should preempt state privacy enactments and the role that India believes private rights of action must play in the enforcement privacy laws as a supplement to the resources that state and federal authorities are able to assign. On the question of whether a national privacy law should cover industries like financial services and health, which already have long-standing privacy regimes, India expresses reservations, citing the difficulty of implementing new legislation that disrupts long standing, industry specific privacy regulation. India McKinney is Director of Federal Affairs for the Electronic Frontier Foundation based in San Francisco. Prior to joining EFF, India spent 10 years in Washington as a staffer for three members of Congress from California. Her passion has always been good public policy and she is excited to be using her skills in advocating for privacy rights for consumers. ***** Contact us: Jerry Buckley | jbuckley@buckleyfirm.com Jody Westby | westby@globalcyberrisk.com ADCG | info@adcg.org
