EPIC Urges FTC to Protect Users’ Privacy On Cloud Computing and Social Networking Services

Posted on January 29, 2010July 3, 2025 by Dissent

From EPIC.org:

EPIC submitted comments to the FTC prior to the agency’s second privacy roundtable. EPIC warned of the ongoing privacy risks associated with cloud computing and social networking privacy, highlighting the Google cloud computing complaint and Facebook privacy complaint filed by EPIC in 2009. The comments note that the FTC has failed to take any meaningful action with respect to either complaint, demonstrating the Commission’s “lack of leadership and technical expertise.” EPIC’s comments also draw attention to the success of international privacy initiatives, in hopes of encouraging the FTC to take meaningful action to protect American consumers. For more information, see EPIC: Cloud Computing and EPIC: Social Networking Privacy.
