According to a recent statewide poll, 76% of Illinois voters oppose “Right to Know” legislation because it will capture additional consumer data and eliminate anonymous use of the internet.

Of those Illinois voters that had an opinion:

- 90% oppose a law that would require websites to link names and browsing history – eliminating anonymous use.
- 77% oppose a law that prevents consumers from using anonymous accounts for emails and apps.
- 77% oppose an increase of data privacy regulations if these new policies were created by special interest groups that would directly profit from lawsuits.

“Right to Know” is a privacy policy in name only. In reality it would reverse many of the privacy protections already put in place by companies who handle your sensitive data.

“Illinois consumers can and should be protected from violations of their online privacy, but the legislation currently under consideration will simply make life harder for consumers and Illinois businesses.” – Omar Duque, President & CEO, Illinois Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (Chicago Sun-Times, April 11, 2017)
