13 Insights Into DNT Issues

A Senate hearing is designed for two things: First, to gather information as an important part of law-making; second, to position Senators as protectors of the people. The Senate Commerce Committee hearing last Wednesday (April 24, 2013), certainly did both. Entitled, “Status Update on the Development of Voluntary Do-Not-Track Standards,” the hearing was intended to examine what steps, if any, industry stakeholders have taken to fulfill their public commitment to honor do-not-track (DNT) requests from consumers, according to the Commerce Committee spokesperson.
