Your data, your rules.On today’s episode, Ben and Dave dive into the wave of new privacy legislation taking effect across the U.S., with California, Texas, and Virginia leading the way. We explore how these laws are giving consumers more control over their personal data—like California’s new “Delete Act” that lets residents remove their information from data brokers in one step.
While this show covers legal topics, and Ben is a lawyer, the views expressed do not constitute legal advice. For official legal advice on any of the topics we cover, please contact your attorney.
