Online Media Daily: ATandT Backs Privacy Group Led By Former AOL Exec

Internet service provider ATandT is backing a new privacy think tank, the Future of Privacy Forum, which is expected to articulate privacy standards for companies that engage in online behavioral targeting. ATandT's law firm, Proskauer Rose, is spearheading the effort. The firm has tapped Jules Polonetsky, former AOL chief privacy officer, to lead the new think tank, expected to be unveiled Monday. The same law firm also helms the anti-net neutrality group "Hands Off the Internet."
