The purpose of this legislation, known as the "Informing Consumers about Smart Devices Act," is to ensure that consumers are aware of whether certain internet-connected devices have built-in cameras or microphones. This is important for protecting consumer privacy and helping individuals make informed purchasing decisions. The key provisions of the Act require manufacturers of specific devices to clearly disclose, before a sale, whether their products contain a camera or microphone. This information must be presented in a way that is easy to understand and notice.
