This article is describes the actions the house took when they  passed plans to the president about revoking an internet privacy bill. Revoking the privacy will most likely be approved by Trump. The bill protects internet users private information from their internet provider, meaning if you have Verizon, Verizon can't sell your information. It will even go to the point where providers can sell information directly.

I think that this a shock and raises a big concern, but even more it shows the hypocrisy of the republican party. One of the republican party's biggest platform is protecting Americans privacy from the federal government so it's kind of ironic to see the government letting big corporal businesses to have information about us and being able to sell it to whoever is willing to pay the most money.
