2024 Panel on the Regulation of Privacy in the US
Date
Location
Companies now collect, analyze, repackage, and sell extraordinary amounts of data on customers—ranging from detailed records of where people spend time based on their smartphone locations to what people search for using their search history. While this offers the promise of data-driven decisions, new products, and targeted advertisements, the rise of customer surveillance also heightens concerns about privacy. Business leaders, policymakers, and researchers alike are grappling with how and when to thoughtfully approach issues of data and privacy. In this panel, professor Itay Fainmesser (JHU) will moderate a discussion with Alessandro Bonatti (MIT), Laura Brandimorte (U Arizona), Alejandro Rosenberg (Federal Trade Commission), and Fiona Scott Morton (Yale) on the economics of privacy, including a discussion and assessment of current and upcoming federal and states' regulations.
