Serwin Quoted on Children's Online Privacy Protection

Foley Partner Andrew Serwin was quoted in an article that appeared in USA Today on September 6, 2011 titled “Apps, social networks pose new threat to kids.” Serwin discusses the privacy risks that social-networking services and mobile devices can potentially pose to young internet users, recognizing that an increasing number of children are opening themselves up to more information disclosures. He notes that the Federal Trade Commission is working to revise the Children’s Online Privacy and Protection Act to include specific rules that protect children using Internet-connected mobile devices.
