Anything bipartisan usually means we are gonna get fucked

In this case, I think it’s probably more so that it could be a lot better. Idk all the details and people always try to sneak shit in, but this (admittedly short) article sounds promising.

APRA includes language from California’s landmark privacy law allowing people to sue companies when they are harmed by a data breach. It also provides the Federal Trade Commission, state attorneys general, and private citizens the authority to sue companies when they violate the law.

We’ll see. I’d like to read the latest text, and I can’t seem to find it.

A lot of red and blue states have data privacy laws that are in the same wheal house as the OG’s - GDPR and CCPA.

I work in data privacy, and architecting systems that comply with multiple laws is a giant pain in the ass. Most of us that work in the space have wanted to unify a lot of these guardrails under one law. Currently, I basically get product requirements from multiple different state who are not taking to each other. It’s miserable.

That said, my big concern is that a federal law won’t be easy to make quick iterations to. Congress is slow as fuck. The US probably wouldn’t have any data privacy stuff in place if it weren’t for the states moving the ball forward. The states can move much much faster.

Can you link me to a red state with data privacy rules “in the same wheel house as GDPR”?

Thanks. It’s embarrassing to see Massachusetts “in committee”. I like to think we’re usually pretty good with stuff like this

To be fair, almost all companies that do interstate business have had to comply with California’s laws - CCPA, CPRA, etc.

I get why it would be a low legislative priority. It’s a lot of work for something large and midsize businesses are already forced to do.

Terrible. It repeats the mistakes of the GDPR. It turns personal data into a kind of property. If you have doubts about the whole capitalism thing, then that should give you pause for thought.

Data about you becomes your intellectual property; the difference to traditional IP being that you can’t sell it but only lend it. If you are outraged that you don’t own the media that you buy, or if you have doubts about intellectual property, this should worry you.

OTOH, if you are worried about personal data being abused to manipulate the population, then this will not help at all.

What kind of harm; what kind of abuse would you hope to prevent by creating more private property?
