This is my letter this morning to my representatives. Feel free to use it any way you want.
"The recent congressional hearings featuring Mark Zuckerberg were disturbing to say the least. One of the most egregious things heard was that you HAVE TO JOIN FACEBOOK TO VIEW YOUR DATA! How convenient for them, and how totally unacceptable for us.
Please propose legislation that would require ANY ENTITY, including the Government (outside of nat'l security necessity) to produce any body of data or research it holds on any individual for free when requested. We already require this of credit reporting agencies, it should be extended to the entire community of data aggregators.
This would have a side benefit of incurring a cost to collection of personal data that would be a deterrent to the abuse's we're now seeing by Facebook, Google, Twitter, Microsoft, the NSA etc."
