Bills Introduced – 10-26-20

Yesterday, with the Senate finishing up their unusual and controversial October sessions, there were 30 bills introduced. One of those bills may see additional coverage in this blog:

S 4869 A bill to require software marketplace operators and owners of covered foreign software to provide consumers with a warning prior to the download of such software, to establish consumer data protections, and for other purposes. Sen. Rubio, Marco [R-FL] 

While I suspect that this bill is targeted at consumer applications, I will be watching for language and definitions that could include control system software and applications in the coverage of the bill. I also suspect that this is targeted at Chinese developed software, but language and definitions could make that targeting problematical.
