    I can’t see anything wrong with this approach, in fact in my mind this is a giant step in the right direction.

    If consumers are allowed to remove their personal data from all state-based data brokers through a single, verifiable consumer request, I can’t see why this law won’t snowball into other states once consumers learn about how much data we are unwittingly giving over for free.
