Some of you will already have seen this:
  http://www.ntia.doc.gov/frnotices/2010/FR_PrivacyNOI_04232010.pdf

> The Department of Commerce‟s Internet Policy Task Force is conducting a comprehensive review of the nexus between privacy policy and innovation in the Internet economy. The Department seeks public comment from all Internet stakeholders, including the commercial, academic and civil society sectors, on the impact of current privacy laws in the United States and around the world on the pace of innovation in the information economy. The Department also seeks to understand whether current privacy laws serve consumer interests and fundamental democratic values. After analyzing the comments responding to this Notice, the Department intends to issue a report, which will contribute to the Administration‟s domestic policy and international engagement in the area of Internet privacy.
