Klobuchar Statement on Facebook Data Deal Investigation

Statement

"These new reports are just the latest example of companies like Facebook failing to protect consumers' private information and profiting off of Americans' data --we're just scratching the surface of the magnitude of this problem. These companies have proven that they can't police themselves and Congress needs to act--we can start by passing my bipartisan privacy bill and working to ensure that users can protect their personal data. This is also just another example of why taxing the companies for data use would also both compensate taxpayers and require the companies to track and be accountable for what they are doing."
