Answer 1

Case: Maine Law vs. the Internet Service Providers
The case: The Internet Service Providers were held responsible for using the personal information of the people who were using the service of these internet providers. The people raised the concern that this was unethical as stated in the Law and was a breach in their privacy. They also stated that there should be clear instructions as to what sort of personal information should be used of the users and there should be a button to opt in or opt out of it. Hence, the people who are opting in would be totally aware that their personal information will be used and then the Internet Service Providers cannot be held responsible for breaching any sort of privacy.
The Internet Service Providers however, stated that why they should be the only ones to be held responsible for the same when at the same time the giants like Google and FaceBook who also practice the same thing of using the personal information of the consumers are not being said anything and roped into this issue.
This issue has been going on for some time and after listening to both the parties, the following conclusion has been draw.
Conclusion: A privacy bill has been formulated in Maine which will be signed in July 2020 and hence forth no personal information can be used without asking the consumers beforehand.
