In a major development, the Republican-controlled US House of Representative today voted to revoke the broadband privacy rules that the Federal Communications Commission approved days before President Donald Trump's election. Republicans passed the measure 215 to 205 which would overturn Federal Communications Commission rule of requiring internet service providers to get customers' permission before selling sensitive consumer data such as browsing history.<br/><br/>The measure has now passed both chambers of the Congress and will move to President Trump's desk to be signed into law. The White House has said that it supports the bill. FCC Chairman Ajit Pai welcomed the passage of the resolution. Before the passage of the bill, the Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said that after this measure, companies will be able to sell Americans' most personal and sensitive information, including private browser history, without their knowledge or consent. She said that they can even track you when you're surfing in a private browsing mode.
