FTC to Hold High-Tech Issue Hearings
An AP newswire article, via Yahoo! News, reports that:
The Federal Trade Commission will host hearings this fall on emerging technologies being exploited by Internet spies and identity thieves.
The FTC last held similar hearings in 1995, when the technology to create now familiar problems such as spyware and spam was still in its infancy.
"It is time to look ahead and examine the next generation of issues to emerge in our high-tech global marketplace," FTC Chairwoman Deborah Platt Majoras said at an anti-spyware conference Thursday. "Ten years is an eternity for technology."
