This should be a federal law. Why do I have to live in California to have the basic right to not be bought and sold by 500 sketchy companies I’ve never heard of?
I tried to sign up but the server was overloaded with people signing up. We are desperate to be protected and for predatory companies to be punished
I appreciate the first step of this all being in place. But the second and third steps are far more important.
1 – Tell them to delete my data.
2 – VERIFY that it was actually deleted by having access to their databases via an independent party.
3 – Enforce deletion with swift legal punishments for failing to delete.
Took a peek. It’s a very simple tool to fill out and covers your cars VIN, mobile device IDs, and stuff like TV/smart device IDs.
If you live in California and care about your privacy, this ought to be worth a few minutes of your time to do.
