Enforced standards versus evolution by general acceptance: A comparative study of e-commerce privacy disclosure and practice in the United States and the United Kingdom

Article Abstract:

A data on privacy practices in e-commerce under the European Union's formal regulatory regime prevailing in the United Kingdom comparing it with data from a previous study of U.S. practices that evolved in the absence of government laws or enforcement is presented. However, the codification by the European Union law, and the enforcement by the U.K. government, improves neither the disclosure nor the practice of e-commerce privacy relative to the United States.
