    I don't think Trump is going to do anything about it. He's a childish disaster of an excuse for a conservative as well as a whiny child. He's too busy tweeting about how he's mad that someone made fun of him. As far as the bill itself, I'm not particularly concerned because, as mentioned above, I cover my butt pretty well as far as personal info, and I check my credit report every couple of days at least.

    Be aware a lot of news outlets paint this as Trump personally stomping on internet privacy when in reality all he's doing is peeling back a policy Obama wanted to implement. The policy wouldn't have assisted your privacy in any substantial way, though. It was, in essence, a choice between ticking the Terms & Services box or not having internet.

    Just another flacid bill on Trump's warpath to obliterate any legitimacy Obama's presidency may have had.

    Be spiteful

    Make LOADS of spam emails signed up to the most fucked up stuff you can imagine.

    Enjoy, ISP. You asked for it.

    So the bill allowing ISPs to sell your info to third parties without your consent has passed

    Made the same mistake as the post above me.

    If people had to opt in then maybe it wouldn't be so bad ? People must however have a choice. No way should financial info be allowed to be sold under any circumstances, though. Even more fraud now, thanks to this law.
