They adopted gdpr some years ago. This goes further and creates infrastructure to delete records at scale. I hope this is good and turns global. We need this, because consent banners do not work. | ||

> They adopted gdpr some years ago. The CCPA is far better than the GDPR. For one, they actually managed to make an effective privacy law that didn't have the knock-on effect of polluting the entire internet with pointless cookie banners. The EU is already making moves to scrap huge parts of their misguided privacy regulations and adopt rules more like what California did with the CCPA. California lawmakers "adopted the GDPR" only insofar as they studied it to learn what not to do. | ||

The GDPR lets someone request deletion of their data and there are legal teeth to force a business to comply, but that's 1:1. Maybe I need to dig deeper, but this specifically applies to data brokers it seems. That's great and it being a one to many request is fantastic, but sounds like it may not apply to just anyone who has data on you like the GDPR... | ||
