       閱讀理解：
       Text 4
　　If you look at the apps on your phone,chances are you have at least one related to
　　your health—and probably several.Whether it is a mental health app,a fitness tracker,a connected health device or something else,many of us are taking advantage of this
　　technology to keep better track of our health in some shape or form.Recent research
　　from the Organization for the Review of Care and Health Applications found that
　　350,000 health apps were available on the market,90,000 of which launched in 2020
　　alone.While these apps have a great deal to offer,it is not always clear how the personal
　　information we input is collected,safeguarded and shared online.Existing health
　　privacy law,such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act,is primarily
　　focused on the way hospitals,doctors’offices,clinics and insurance companies store
　　health records online.The health information these apps and health data tracking
　　wearables are collecting typically does not receive the same legal protections.Without additional protections in place,companies may share(and potentially
　　monetize)personal health information in a way consumers may not have authorized or
　　anticipated.In 2021,Flo Health faced a Federal Trade Commission（FTC）investigation.The FTC alleged in a complaint that"despite express privacy claims,the company took
　　control of users'sensitivity fertility data and shared it with third parties.”Flo Health
　　and the FTC settled the matter with a Consent Order requiring the company to get app
　　users'express affirmative consent before sharing their health information as well as to
　　instruct the third parties to delete the data they had obtained.Section 5 of the FTC Act empowers the FTC to initiate enforcement action against
　　unfair or deceptive acts,meaning the FTC can only act after the fact if a company's
　　privacy practices are misleading or cause unjustified consumer harm.While the FTC is
　　doing what it can to ensure apps are keeping their promises to consumers around the
　　handling of their sensitive health information,the rate at which these health apps are
　　hitting the market demonstrates just how immense of a challenge this is.As to the prospects for federal legislation,commentators suggest that
　　comprehensive federal privacy legislation seems unlikely in the short term.States have
　　begun implementing their own solutions to shore up protections for
　　consumer-generated health data.California has been at the forefront of state privacy
　　efforts with the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018.Virginia，Colorado and Utah
　　have also recently passed state consumer data privacy legislation.
