Senator Blumenthal has been a long time leader in the fight to protect people’s right to privacy against intrusions by large corporations, cyber criminals, and governments. Senator Blumenthal has challenged Big Tech for its rampant commercial surveillance, mishandling, and misuse of our private information. He has vigorously fought for a national consumer privacy law that would set limits on how companies use our data and impose obligations on how they secure that sensitive information. Senator Blumenthal has also pushed to modernize our laws and defenses to stop, deter, and punish cyber criminals and foreign governments that hack and meddle to defraud consumers, threaten our national security, and undermine our democracy.
