The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has introduced a proposed rule to expand how Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs) can be used. This rule aims to give alert originators more flexibility in sending WEAs under the "Public Safety Message" category, allowing for greater personalization by consumers in receiving alerts. The proposal also explores ways to reduce alert fatigue, suggesting subscribers could customize how they receive these alerts, such as silencing them or changing their notification settings. The FCC seeks public comments on these proposals and additional ideas on minimizing subscriber opt-outs from receiving emergency alerts.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) is asking the public for feedback on how companies that provide financial services handle consumers' personal financial data. They want to understand how these companies collect, use, and share data from consumer payments. The information collected will help CFPB make decisions on whether to update regulations to better protect consumer privacy. Anyone interested can share their thoughts, and CFPB particularly wants to hear from consumers, advocates, researchers, and businesses by April 11, 2025.
