we've had something like that for years in the uk.
it's called the data protection act.
been around since about 1999 i think.

if any company in the uk keeps data about somebody, that person is legally entitled to see that data.

is also states that companies have a legal obligation to protect that data as well.

i'm surprised the US doesn't already have a law governing this kind of thing.

i hope this thing gets passed anyway.
maybe if it does, the rest of the country will follow suit.
though with the power big business seems to hold in the us government, who knows if that'll happen.
