Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It'll be interesting to see what privacy rights we Americans actually have, once it's goes into law.
It's a good article, breaks down a lot of the major points. But I still worry about the 'devil is in the details', and how it effects regular people day-to-day.

What does a license have to do with the topic?
This cat has a link to the Creative Commons license at the bottom of all of his comments.
How very Facebook will sell your data if you do not copy and paste this message of them.
Their posts show up in Google with ads next to them. That is commercial use, which is prohibited by that license. I wonder if they intend to sue Google.
I believe the CC license requires the right holder to contact the violator and give them 30 days to comply.
So basically Google will remove it if you send them a dmca notice.
It still has to go through the Senate and be signed, there will probably be significant changes before it has a chance to become law.
If I understand the US system correctly, even if this does become law, its still up for interpretation by the supreme court, so it'll still likely favor Republican interests.
For better, or for worse, will be the thing to keep an eye out for.
