John Kerry actually said...

"I'm talking about the ability of people to exercise choice and control over how their information--I repeat, their information--is collected, used, and distributed."

"I pledge to work with you as closely as possible as we try to find a broad-based and, hopefully, consensus approach to the challenges of this issue."

"the statements of Senator Kerry and the testimony offered at the Committee's privacy hearings this year have focused more keenly on online data collection"

"We do not envision an enforcement role."
