Title

Legacy story: California Consumer Privacy Act

Date or Period 📅

Discussed sections in effect since January 2020 (Paul, 2019).

Elevator Pitch

The CCPA is enforced in California, USA.

Justification

Unformed Thoughts

With the rise of big data analytics, where data science is applied to ever-larger datasets, the risk of making serious – even life-changing – inferences based on data is increasing. The California Consumer Privacy Act – in effect since January 2020 (Paul, 2019) – features definitions of inference and explicit protections for inferred data. Jordan (2020) argues that these give the CCPA an advantage before a GDPR that is less clear on the protection of inferred data.
