Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who must’ve been thrilled to discuss anything besides himself, and FTC Chairwoman Deborah Platt-Majoras announced the recommendations of the President’s Identity Theft Task Force on Monday. That group is also behind a national data breach notification act.
Here’s hoping their recommendations get more favorable treatment than those of the Iraq Study Group.
