Proposed additions

Hello Wikipedians!

I am requesting that independent editors review the following proposed additions, all supported by third-party sources.

1. Add MIT Media Lab affiliation to the lead and infobox

Proposed addition to lead paragraph: "He is also a visiting scholar at the MIT Media Lab."

Sources:

• National Archives Foundation bio: https://archivesfoundation.org/cameron-kerry/
• Wilson Center bio: https://www.wilsoncenter.org/person/cameron-f-kerry

2. Resolve [citation needed] tags on education Kerry's graduation from Harvard College (1972) and Boston College Law School (1978) can be sourced to:

• Commerce bio: https://az.commerce.gov/about-commerce/commerce-leadership/cameron-kerry.html
• Boston College press: https://lira.bc.edu/assets/hypothesis/web/viewer.html?file=%2Fdownloads%2F8t7cn-x7653%2F32309.html.pdf

3. Expand the Service in the Obama Administration section to reflect substantive policy work

The current text omits Kerry's role in the Obama-era Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights, which is documented in reliable sources.

Proposed addition: "At the Department of Commerce, co-chaired the National Science and Technology Council Subcommittee on Commercial Data Privacy, which produced the administration's 2012 privacy blueprint, Consumer Data Privacy in a Networked World, and the Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights."

4. Add: U.S.-EU commercial data privacy negotiations

Kerry's work at Commerce made him one of the principal U.S. interlocutors with the European Union on commercial data privacy issues, a role documented in multiple government and independent sources.

Proposed addition: "As General Counsel, Kerry served as a principal U.S. interlocutor with the European Union on commercial data privacy, traveling to Europe to negotiate interoperability between the U.S. and EU privacy frameworks and to defend the EU-U.S. Safe Harbor Framework."
