"White House Executive Order Protects Americans' Sensitive Data from Foreign Adversaries"

President Biden signs an executive order to protect Americans' personal data from foreign adversaries like China and Russia, targeting commercial data brokers that traffic in personal data. The order aims to prevent the large-scale transfer of Americans' personal data to "countries of concern" and establish safeguards without limiting legitimate commerce around data. The Department of Justice will issue regulations to establish protections for Americans' sensitive personal data, including geolocation information on sensitive government sites and members of the military. The move follows Biden's previous executive order on artificial intelligence and seeks to balance technology development with national security and consumer rights.
