The pro-privacy Browser Act has re-appeared in US Congress. But why does everyone except right-wing trolls hate it?

Re: More privacy is good isn't it?

Thereby missing many data regarded sensitive in EU:

  • personal data revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs;
  • trade-union membership;
  • genetic data, biometric data processed solely to identify a human being;
  • data concerning a person’s sex life or sexual orientation

Not surprising, noting from what political area it comes from (but of course "financial data" must be protected, heavily, I guess...)

Note also the "precise geolocation" - without defining what precision (1km? 100m? 10m? 1cm?)
