US Senators Move to Regulate Facebook in Wake of Zuckerberg Testimony
New legislation will bolster government regulation of social media in light of Facebook’s failure to adequately protect user information, Senators John Kennedy and Amy Klobuchar said in a press release.

"I don’t want to regulate Facebook half to death, but there are things that need to be changed. Our bill will help protect Americans’ online data fingerprint."
