In light of Congress’ decidedly tech-focused privacy hearings, I thought it important to elevate the surprising absent of data brokers to the conversation:
[D]ata brokers speak of “ethically sourced” data and “enhanced transparency“ through self-regulation. The reality is that while many companies now collect a whole lot of our information, there’s really only one industry that doesn’t want us to know much about it in exchange. Data brokers may know everything about you—but they still don’t want you to know about them.
