There is a better way. Instead of considering these bills, the Senate Commerce Committee should be focusing on a national consumer privacy bill that would protect ALL internet users, or on banning behavioral advertising that tracks us across the web—again, for users of all ages.

Refreshing to hear someone who gets it... But I guess that would hamper their ability to surveil adults, where targeted advertising simply serves as an excuse for it happening.
