The new bill reinforces that all data brokers must register with the California privacy protection agency, and it requires the CPPA to establish an easy and free way for Californians to request that all data brokers in the state delete their data through a single page, regardless of how they acquired that information. If data brokers don’t comply with these rules, the bill stipulates they be fined or otherwise penalized.
Hopefully this becomes the standard nation wide. Having a single page where you can delete your accounts on multiple services with a single click sounds like a data privacy dream.
I’m genuinely interested in your interpretation of how your personal information can be considered “intellectual property” of a data broker.
Yeah I said correct me if im wrong because I wasnt sure.
I dont know if it works like this but i would think that when you use someones app or website or connections, and this company captures your information, this makes it their property. This would be akin to someone taking photos of you without your permission and selling them as stock photos. Those photos are theirs, as disgusting as it is and I dont think the government can step in to make you give that up. Obviously this analogy doesnt work because selling pictures like this is illegal but the idea is the same because you waive your rights when you use their products.
Again, not sure if thats how that works, only have a surface level understanding here.
Information is not property unless you create it
I love your name btw. I always use that name for all my other accounts.
