CCPA vs. GDPR - What About Consent?

[@Jase-L]

We need a GDPR equivalent in the United States. Intrusive, Greedy Scumbags are among the many reasons the US is not the greatest country on the planet. Corporations/business owners who can't compete and manage their operations in ethical fashion, aren't fundamentally good business people. They DGAF about the impact that misusing personal data and information has on the population and their quality of lives. The CCPA is a great start in protecting citizens and consumers -- Fortunately, countless other states have followed suit, since there has been little federal action (which is expected given the power brokers/lobbyists in Washington are in the pockets of the officials who could stop this shit). The CCPA may have been passed quickly, but its broad language is a good thing for consumers, it keeps businesses on their toes and in fear of litigation while giving common-folk real recourse in the event they are harmed by data and information. I realize the business sector and their lobbyists love tedious 1000+ page complex legislation so they can jam up our court systems in civil litigation for years and years, but Americans should have their right to full privacy as if they were off the grid if they choose such. If a citizen says NO, I don't want you to mine or share any data related to my person whatsoever, then that wish should be honored. FFS, this is the United States.

What I set in adsense: not to limit data processing or limit data processing, and I'm from EU

I agree, I think he talks down about the ccpa like it’s really poorly done. The random condescension “that’s California law for you…” what are these other states doing to keep peoples data safe? Nothing? Ah.
