Senate Democratic privacy principles: Endgame or game over for a bipartisan bill?

The week of Nov 18, Senate Democratic leaders released a set of privacy principles that help to frame the debate on federal privacy legislation. The substance of the principles is at high-level of generality but stakes some notable ground in the privacy debate:

• An emphasis on addressing how companies collect, use, and share personal data
• A shoutout for civil rights
• Strong enforcement at several levels
• A private right of action without federal preemption
