Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown’s (D. OH) re-election bid:
Sen. Sherrod Brown (D. OH)
Do you know who your internet company is selling your information to? Did you even know they could do that?
Well, they can. Republicans in Congress and the Trump administration just tossed out online privacy protections. They've sold out consumers to big telecom companies, treating your private information like a commodity to be bought and sold.
Consumer protections should not be auctioned off to the highest bidder.
I'm joining with some colleagues to demand that Trump and congressional Republicans stop treating Americans' private information like a piggy bank. Will you join us?
