Julian Zelizer : President-elect Donald Trump retakes the White House , a new day dawns for his legacy within the world of tech.

Zelizer says the current woes of the tech industry play perfectly into his signature brand of disruption.

He says Trump must preserve free speech principles, champion antitrust and strengthen the free market.

The U.S. is currently the sole G-20 outlier without a national privacy law.

A promising piece of legislation, the American Privacy Rights Act , is already on the table.

Passing this bill would enshrine Trump as a privacy hero. Fifth , he should enforce significant penalties for violations.
