Under the guise of pageants, camps, and fast food restaurant coupons more personally identifiable information on children is finding its way into the commercial trade on personal information according to a Seattle Times Editorial. The editorial supports the need for a bill introduced by Senators Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, titled the Children's Listbroker Privacy Act. The bill would ban the trade in children�s personally identifiable information.
