CHEVRON DECISION WILL IMPACT PRIVACY AND AI REGULATIONS

The Supreme Court has issued a 6-3 decision in two long-awaited cases – Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo and Relentless, Inc. v. Department of Commerce – overturning the legal doctrine of “Chevron deference.” While the decision will impact a wide range of federal rules, it is particularly salient for ongoing privacy, data protection, and artificial intelligence regulations across the federal government.

As a resource, today, Future of Privacy Forum also releases for the public an Issue Brief: The Role of Chevron Deference in Federal Privacy Regulation (read it here ). In this Issue Brief, we highlight the current role that agency deference plays in data protection, privacy, and AI-related efforts across the federal government. These include major ongoing efforts such as the FTC’s Commercial Surveillance and Data Security Rulemaking, updates to the Child Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and inter-agency efforts to prevent the use of discriminatory automated systems in the housing market and workplace.
