"I spend the past year listening to experts and strengthening the protections in my bill," Wyden said in a statement provided to Motherboard.

"It is based on three basics ideas: Consumers must be able to control their own private information, companies must provide vastly more transparency about how they use and share our data; and corporate executives need to be held personally responsible when they lie about protecting our personal information," Wyden added.
