Bill Title: Creates a Keep the Internet Devices Safe Act that is different from the introduced bill. Removes legislative findings and intent. Provides that a "digital device" is an Internet-connected device that contains a microphone. Provides that no private entity may turn on or enable a digital device's microphone unless the registered owner or person (instead of user of the device) configuring the device is provided certain notices in a consumer agreement (instead of a written policy). Provides that a manufacturer of a digital device that does not cause to be turned on or otherwise use a digital device's microphone is not subject to the restrictions on the use of a digital device's microphone. Deletes provisions regarding violations of the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act. Provides that the exclusive authority to enforce the Act is vested in the Attorney General.
