Privacy

The ACLU of Ohio’s main concern with HB 78 is the lack of specific privacy protections in the bill for your constituents.

The ACLU of Ohio urges the committee to reject HB 473 because of its failure to adequately address crucial and serious mass surveillance concerns.

Additional protections far beyond HB 376 are needed from the General Assembly. As currently written, we believe exploitable loopholes and exceptions in HB 376 can and will give businesses and corporations the ability to circumvent privacy concerns

The ACLU cares deeply about data privacy and security, and your individual choice regarding the use of your personal information. As of April 1, 2021, we've updated our Online Privacy Statement.

Law enforcement is increasingly using artificial intelligence, including facial recognition technology to investigate crimes. However, the use of such technology to identify a suspect is akin to relying on an anonymous informant, which in and of itself is insufficient to establish probable cause.
