Knowing what you know now, in terms of the state of technology, but also what FTC has to deal with, with the statute, and looking at the statute, would you recommend that the Senate revisit some of those definitions in the underlying law…

But in re-examining COPPA, lawmakers should tread carefully.

But, that's the main legislative recommendation I would make: create some legal protections for teenagers.

I believe the FTC should also conduct independent research to document how young people's data is being collected.

I would support broad legislation to protect all consumers, based on a framework of fair information principles.

I would just like to make a plea that we, as a society, and that the government and the industry, not ignore the needs of the Nation's teenagers.

I think there are a lot of people who appreciate COPPA and believe it plays an important role in safeguarding online privacy.

Thank you for your leadership.

I think COPPA operates well as it is. I'm not necessarily talking about revisiting the actual legislation, but I do think we ought to think about what protections we could provide for teens.

I think it would be a mistake, actually, to say, 'Well, because we can't get it, you know, 100 percent, we should just give up.'

Protecting our children's online privacy and safety is a critical issue whose importance cannot be overstated.

I know some companies may differ with me on this, but my impression is that there's really not a way that exists, yet, to truly get rock-solid age verification.
