Details

Jeff Flake created and sponsored the Senate Join Resolution 34, to repeal the rule Protecting the Privacy of Customers of Broadband and Other Telecommunications Services. This eliminated consumer protection from their internet providers selling their browser history to third parties without consent.

This is an abomination against the Fourth Amendment and consumer rights. There is absolutely no justification for this other than "we value corporate profits more than the right to privacy".
