>>Preemption would be an enormous mistake

Preemption is always a mistake, i am not sure why everyone wants federal laws for everything, without even touching the fact that Data privacy is in no way even close to any of the enumerated power of the US Federal Government

Federal Laws almost always favor large companies, the exact companies these laws are needed to protect the consumer from

Facebook, Microsoft, etc would love nothing more than to have the federal government take over because has "stake holders" they will be called on to write their own legislation, and will start the revolving door of hiring current, former and future regulators to work in the very corporations they are supposed to regulate.

Federal laws never work for the average citizen
