* “Federal Trade Commission: Privacy Law and Policy” by Chris Jay Hoofnagle (Cambridge University Press)
This book traces how the Federal Trade Commission has evolved into the most important regulator of information privacy – and thus innovation policy – in the world. A major theme of the book is how modern calls to limit the FTC to common law are confused, have no basis in law or history, and are simply a ploy to roll back the FTC’s power. Today’s FTC, argues the author, can do little to address an economy organized around surveillance and European privacy values are unlikely to be embraced given the FTC’s economistic conception of its role.
