Abstract

Privacy and Consumer Education -- There seems to be universal agreement that consumers need to have a better understanding of data privacy and commercial business practices to enable them to make smart choices. However, there is also general agreement that relatively little progress has been made. Who is to blame for the lack of consumer privacy information? How can things improve in the future?
