California has the most extensive state privacy framework in the US. It rests on a constitutional privacy right (Art. I, §1, added 1972) and two main statutes enforced by a dedicated agency, CalPrivacy, alongside the Attorney General.

Anyone else check out their CalPrivacy DROP report?

The “exempted” data brokers were particularly interesting.

Did you know California just launched DROP, a free tool that lets you delete your personal data from hundreds of data brokers with ONE request?
Less spam. Less tracking. More privacy.
DROP. Delete. Done.

Delete Request and Opt-out Platform (DROP)
Protect your personal information. Data brokers collect, share, and sell your personal information. You can stop that from happening.

Great news! @governor.ca.gov has signed the Expanding Privacy Rights Act (SB 923, Becker). This CalPrivacy-sponsored bill closes a loophole in the California Consumer Privacy Act’s right to delete and makes it easier for consumers to exercise their privacy rights. It goes into effect Jan. 1, 2027.
California Expands Privacy Protections by Strengthening Deletion Rights
The legislation was authored by Senator Josh Becker (D-Menlo Park) and sponsored by the California Privacy Protection Agency.
