*NEW* from Census Bureau on changes to privacy protections for the American Community Survey

"We’ve heard from a number of data users lately who have questions...
...
Our current assessment is that the science does not yet exist to comprehensively implement a formally private solution for the ACS. We expect a multiyear development period, including data user review and feedback, that will extend beyond 2025."
