Describe legal compliance laws addressing public and private institutions.

Please use attached writing standards instead of APA. Thank you!

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) are both intended to provide protections for children accessing the Internet. However, they both have had some opposition.

Write a paper in which you:

Describe the main compliancy requirements and the protected information for both COPPA and CIPA.

Analyze how COPPA and CIPA are similar and how they are different, and explain why there is a need for two different acts.

Describe what you believe are the most challenging elements of both COPPA and CIPA to implement in order to be compliant.

Speculate on why COPPA and CIPA define protection for different ages; COPPA defines a child as being under the age of 13 and CIPA defines a minor as being under the age of 17.

Identify the main opposition to COPPA and CIPA based on research and speculate on whether they will be changed in the future based on the opposition.
