At the bottom of the event page, they say a comment can be submitted at this link https://www.regulations.gov/ but I can't find the corresponding document for this topic. Am I missing something?
FTC Chair Lina Khan [further breaks it down](https://twitter.com/linakhanFTC/status/1557738539202531334):
>1. Firms track & collect data on Americans at a stunning scale—on our location, our health, what we read online, who we know, what we buy.
>@FTC is seeking comment on whether to issue rules aimed at commercial surveillance & lax data security practices.
Senator Markey (MA) has also [responded positively to it](https://twitter.com/SenMarkey/status/1557738870397353984):
>We have reached a crisis point for children and teens’ well-being online. I'm glad to see @linakhanFTC and @FTC working to give users the privacy protection they deserve. Congress must also pass my legislation to further protect young people online. We must act now.
