Everyone is in favor of privacy, and privacy is under siege in America. The new FCC rules would not have avoided even one of the problems listed above. On October 27, 2016, less than two weeks before the 2016 election, the FCC adopted a 200-page report and order with new rules on broadband privacy. This included more than 7 pages of new rules alone, a substantial quantity of new rules even for the FCC. The first question the FCC should have asked is whether the FCC had any statutory authority to address broadband privacy.
