Answers will vary. The United States Congress introduced legislation that would require companies to share personal Internet activities with third parties. This would allow Internet service providers to track customers' location, financial, health, and browsing data without consent. Similarly, China is putting in place a host of regulations and taxes that aim to govern its citizens many transactions on foreign electronic marketplaces. It is estimated that one in five transactions in China happens on a foreign e-commerce platform. The regulations increase inspections of incoming goods and aim to ensure both the health and safety of consumers and that the value-added taxes on foreign goods, which often amount to 70 percent, have been collected.
The section "e-Commerce and Data Privacy" on page 67 discusses the advantages of asking companies to share personal Internet activities with third parties. Students can use this section to make their own interpretation and answer this question.
