@dmarti Great call. I composed a letter with #Resistbot and enabled it to be a template that anyone can use. Text “SIGN PHYURG” to 50409 to support SB362!

#California
#PrivacyRights
#DeleteAct
#VoteForSB362

If you're in #California, write to your assembly member -- it looks like the #DeleteAct would have a big impact on the surveillance business and help drive marketing budgets into positive-sum investments

Support the #DeleteAct unless you totally love #DataBrokers

Data brokers are launching an attack on proposed CA legislation #SB362 that would let people opt out from all #databroker services en masse. Because they know everyone will do it if they can. The #DELETEAct would be good for Californians. Tell your legislator you support it and don't let these dodgy businesses kill it. https://www.politico.com/news/2023/08/16/ad-industry-tries-to-quash-proposed-data-broker-regulations-00111513

"The onus is on individuals to try to protect their data from an estimated 2,000-4,000 #databrokers worldwide -- many of which have no other relationship with consumers beyond the trade in their data," reports KQED. "This lucrative trade is also known as #surveillance #advertising, or the 'ad tech' industry."

"It is a pretty basic philosophical battle about whether your personal information is, in fact, yours to share as you see appropriate and when it is personally beneficial to you, or whether it is property to be bought and sold,” Rosenberg said" #DELETEACT https://www.kqed.org/news/11947039/delete-act-seeks-to-give-californians-more-power-to-block-data-tracking
