HAZAA! Another huge step forward for #privacy as #SB362 #CADeleteAct has made it off the suspense file and out of Asm Appropriations! Now on to a floor vote sometime before 9/14. We’re facing steep opposition as #databrokers and #advertisers rage against the bill, so if YOU think Californians should be able to exercise privacy rights against data brokers, if YOU want to delete your PII from data brokers with a single click, please call your lawmaker to support! #CAPrivacy #california

Data brokers and advertisers want to “pull out all the stops” and use their internal advertising resources to kill the #CADeleteAct #SB362 - another indication this bill is more necessary than ever before. If you think it’s concerning and not-a-small-bit-messed-up that data brokers can use the boundless dossiers they have on consumers to laser target attack ads for their benefit — we agree! Support #SB362 so we can finally delete our information from data brokers!

You know your bill is doing something right when data brokers and advertisers start spinning up hit pieces against it. SB 362 aims to let people delete their information from data brokers — that’s it; and it’s long past time for that to be possible. We’re facing an uphill battle, but clearly making them sweat.

Doing an interview in a few hours about the horrors of #databrokers and why the #CADeleteAct is no necessary! What’s your favorite #databroker parade of horribles?
