The Privacy Oracle: October 2020
The Privacy Oracle consolidates significant U.S. legislative and regulatory developments at the state and federal level into a single publication. In this month’s issue, we offer:
- After taking a backseat during COVID-19, data privacy and security legislative proposals re-emerge to the fore.
- Updates on Facebook’s BIPA Settlement – notice, claims, and an abandoned challenge by another firm seeking opt outs.
- Tackling the new "information blocking" regulations from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services requires substantial operational and cultural changes to how patients’ health information is shared and there are some common challenges for compliance that are emerging.
- Court dismisses privacy lawsuit against Google and the University of Chicago due to the plaintiff’s inability to show quantifiable harm or damages.
