Just curious what laws people would like to see passed where they live related to privacy. Can be an existing law in another country you’d like to see in your own, something new entirely, or repealing an existing privacy-invading law

Something like the Massachusetts MDPA that’s going thru their legislature now seems pretty robust especially for U.S. standards. Would be great to have a federal law, tho obviously since the US congress is 100% compromised this is basically the best we can hope for.
I had a skim through the proposal and it sounds pretty solid. I do wonder though if the targeted advertising ban on under 17’s would push websites to do age verification like so many other places are doing
I don’t think it would be needed.
The advertisersGoogle knows with a strong statistical certainty which age bracket you’re in. It would be illegal to target that market segment.
