California Voters Approve Proposition Creating Privacy Protection Agency

A controversial California ballot measure regarding data privacy appears to have been passed by voters in the election, and it is likely to have a national impact by regulating how tech giants based in The Golden State must operate. Proposition 24, known as the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, seeks to amend and expand on provisions of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) that was passed in 2018. The proposition would establish a California Privacy Protection Agency with the power to enforce CCPA, and changes would go into effect in 2023.
