Consumer Service or Threat? Internet services can anonymously track what people do online, allowing advertisers to target consumers with ads based on their interests. But with technological innovation comes a crucial question: is targeted advertising a threat to privacy, or is it an enhanced service? The Paley Center for Media and Loeb & Loeb gather government officials, executives from the marketing and technology industries, and consumer rights advocates to look for solutions and common ground as this issue makes its way to Congress. Panelists include: Molly Crawford, Senior Attorney, Division of Privacy and Identity Protection, Federal Trade Commission; Don Lowery, SVP, Government and Public Affairs, The Nielsen Company; Ari Schwartz, COO, Center for Democracy and Technology; and Mike Yang, Senior Product Counsel, Google. Moderator: Ieuan Jolly, Loeb & Loeb LLP.
