Apple CEO Tim Cook wrote a letter to Congress a day after he appeared on Capitol Hill and met with lawmakers.
The bill would give consumers protections and rights dealing with how their data is used online, and would require that companies minimize the amount of data they collect on their users.
One point being debated is whether the bill would carve out exceptions for states that already have a privacy law, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. Another issue that business groups have with the legislation involves the right of individuals to sue over violations. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce opposes the bill, calling it"" after previously pressing congress to pass federal privacy rules to prevent a patchwork of state laws.
Apple has taken a different position, saying that any concerns about implementation details are outweighed by its support for federal privacy legislation. Cook said in a tweet last week that Apple supports the"strongest privacy bill possible." "We strongly urge you to advance comprehensive privacy legislation as soon as possible, and we stand ready to assist in this process in the days ahead," Cook said in the letter.
