hawley: i would like to hear the facts. want to hear the explanations for the difference between where they have told consumers and users and what they are actually doing. there is a huge gap there, and i would like to hear them explain it in their own words. actually come clean, be honest, and set out the facts. this just gets to why we need to pass legislation, congress needs to pass legislation, to give every single american the right to opt out of being tracked, period. no back doors, no workaround, every american should say i don't want to be tracked. taylor: are you also planning on writing a letter to apple and google, given it runs on the apple ios software and the google android system? sen. hawley: google is already well aware my concerns, as is apple. google has similar problems. google testified to me, under oath, that their users can turn off location services and not be tracked. that is also not true. the android phone constantly scans for wi-fi networks, constantly monitors your cellular network, even if the

hawley: no.y concern is i would like the e.u., when it comes to trade disputes, and i am from a farming state, so we have some bones to pick with how the farmers are treated, so we hope for better terms. from a geopolitical perspective, i do not see them as a threat. there is a threat to the balance of power, but it is not the e.u. it's russia. we need our european allies to do more with us. we cannot come to a situation in which the united states is forced to choose. i think that would be bad. >> i am very much interested in the middle east. you talked about counterterrorism. there is one piece that i would like you to have some comments on, turkey. are they still essential in the nato, and what you make of that relationship between that administration and the president of turkey? sen. hawley: obviously they are still a part of nato. richard asked earlier, but you asked about russia and china, and i worry about turkey and russia, so the russia china friendship i think would be disastrous for us.

hawley: tiktok is a simple solution.could stop tiktok from transferring any data of americans to china. should make that illegal. there should be a firewall there. at any time a chinese company wants to acquire an american data company, the state department should sign off beforehand. there should be preclearance requirements. when it comes to apple or any company like apple, they should not be storing data in china in encryption keys in china. it is too much of a security risk. taylor: so tiktok should be under review. sen. hawley: it already is but it should have been done on the front-end. my bill would change that. it would require them to preclear before chinese company can buy it or a russian company. when itany of concern comes to security none of those companies in those countries should be able to buy an american company without preclearance. taylor: what does a realistic tech bill look like? sen. hawley: i think we could start with "do not track." it has huge protection, broad bipartisan support, and is pro-com

senator hawley: for one thing, it is bipartisan.not track bill is a really significant move for consumers. it gives consumers the opportunity to say they do not want anyone to scoop up information about them. it would give every american the right to that. it is sponsored by senator feinstein from california, senator warner from virginia. we have broad bipartisan support. it is a common sense measure and something consumers deserve to have. taylor: i want to fold your concerns about data privacy into big tech and antitrust and the doj has hinted at the fact that those two are a same issue. is this the concern about data privacy or do you have antitrust concerns? senator hawley: one of the reasons data privacy concerns are so pressing is these companies are monopoly size. there are not really viable competitors to facebook or google, and that is a big problem, so i am concerned about their anticompetitive conduct. i am concerned that is making privacy issues worse. taylor: i think critics, to be fair, would say the competitors are in

hawley: i think we could track." "do not it has huge protection, broad bipartisan support, and is pro-competition. it goes to the very business model of google and facebook and twitter, for that matter. i would start there. i have said i don't think the goal of comprehensive five is the legislation, we ought not to let that stand in the way. notuld start with "do track" and protection for children. big tech should not be able to advertise or track kids and every parent should have the right have that data needed. -- deleted. taylor: europe and the european union has been much more strict than the u.s.. why have they been able to pass legislation and we haven't? sen. hawley: big tech has purchased a lot of friends here in the capital. they have expanded their netflix -- network of influence for years. they know how to play the game. but consumers are impatient, parents are impatient and fed up with their kids being exploited and tracked online. consumers are fed up with being tracked and not having anything to say or

i want to play you the thoughts of josh hawley, the senator from missouri and his call for regulation of big tech. >> the pathologies associated with social media in the last decade, the data that comes to us about the correlation of social media usage and teenage suicide and teenage depression and teenage loneliness. we need more information, but we are seeing so far is very worrisome. we know what the business model is of these giant media companies. the business model is to get us to spend as much time online as possible and to take as much information from us as they can and then sell it. the business model is based on export of consumers, families, individuals, children in many cases. that is

hawley: it already is is my understanding, but it should have been sooner.r: what does a realistic tech bill look like that has a chance of getting past? y: i think we can start with do not track. it has broad bipartisan support and addresses privacy issues. it also is pro-competition because they do not track competition goes to the business model of google and facebook and also twitter, for that matter. i would start there. i have said over and over that i do not think the goal of comprehensive privacy legislation, whatever that might look like, i don't think we ought to let that stand in the way of taking steps right now that would be good for consumers. i would start with do not track, and i would start with protections for children. i think big tex should not be able to direct ads to kids, should not be able to track kids, and every parent ought to have the right to have their children's data deleted. andor: around this issue arguably all legislation on big tech, europe and the european union has been much more strict than the u.s. why have they been ab

i would say this plan shares a lot of similarities with things proposed by senator josh hawley and other senators in terms of regulating how you interact with platforms, the amount of time you spend on the platform, particular to josh's bill, autoplay and things like that. host: what are the challenges federal regulators have, congress has, the administration has, in regulating, not just technology companies that are different, the challenges that are different from regulating other sorts of businesses? patrick: i think that the challenges aren't so different. i challenge the premise of that a little bit. what we see in trying to regulate these companies, pretend as if these companies are so different because we are on a frontier of a new type of technology. the principles of regulation are still the same. you want to set up a competitive dynamic where these companies are competing with one another, and you are allowing customers to decide which platforms work best for them, which privacy settings work best for them. and when you try to assign a one-size-fits-all regulatory scheme in the
