Facebook CEO tells US senate to look at EU-style rules
By EUobserver
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg told US senators on Tuesday that it was "worth discussing" whether to introduce rules in the US similar to those in the upcoming EU data protection regulation. When asked if there should be an obligation for companies to inform consumers of a data breach within 72 hours, Zuckerberg said: "That makes sense to me." Similar notification obligations will apply in the EU as of 25 May.
