Trump Signs Bill Allowing ISPs to Sell Users' Data

After his press secretary blasted it as an example of rampant government overreach, President Donald Trump signed a bill into law that could eventually allow internet providers to sell information about their customers' browsing habits. The bill scraps a Federal Communications Commission online privacy regulation issued in October to give consumers more control over how companies like Comcast, AT&T and Verizon share that information. Critics have argued that the rule would stifle innovation and pick winners and losers among internet companies.
