New Consumer Privacy Guide
The Center for Democracy and Technology and other consumer groups have launched ConsumerPrivacyGuide.org, a new online resource providing consumers with tips and other information on how to better protect their privacy. The Guide tells consumers what options are currently available to them to control the collection and use of personal information. Joining CDT in creating and co-sponsoring the site are Common Cause, Consumer Action, Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, Call for Action and the National Consumers League.
