According to the Wall Street Journal, the current administration is planning to ask Congress to pass a "privacy bill of rights" to protect the public from unauthorized and intrusive data gathering.
The administration's plan to push for legislation reflects a shifting attitude by the government, which for more than a decade favored a hands-off approach to the Internet. Officials have said the increasing intrusiveness of online tracking has forced them to reassess that approach.
