Historically, privacy bills that get passed tend to be anti-privacy bills. The Medical Privacy Act gave your doctor permission to sell all your private medical data to marketers. The change is I now am forced to sign a privacy release that states I accept that they will sell my private data, and if I refuse to sign it, they refuse to provide medical services.
Any new bill about internet privacy in the US will be the same way. Lobbyists will make sure the name is orwellian doublespeak. It's not a coincidence that we see anti-privacy people like Wilson advocating for what will soon be a bill their people have carefully constructed in order to give them free reign to do as they please.
