Data Privacy Bill Going To Florida Gov. DeSantis

After years of debate about the issue, Florida lawmakers Thursday passed a wide-ranging bill that supporters said would boost online data privacy. 

“We are doing so much for the protection of both children and all Floridians when it comes to where our private information is going and how it’s being treated and giving us some control over our digital identity again,” House sponsor Fiona McFarland, R-Sarasota, told House members. “This is a really, really big deal, guys.”

The bill (SB 262), which focuses on large online companies, drew heavy lobbying throughout the legislative session. Negotiations on the details continued into Thursday, the next-to-last day of the session.
