While some states have made data privacy gains, the US has so far been unable to implement protections at a federal level. A new bipartisan proposal called APRA could break the impasse.
We’ll see. I’d like to read the latest text, and I can’t seem to find it.
A lot of red and blue states have data privacy laws that are in the same wheal house as the OG’s - GDPR and CCPA.
I work in data privacy, and architecting systems that comply with multiple laws is a giant pain in the ass. Most of us that work in the space have wanted to unify a lot of these guardrails under one law. Currently, I basically get product requirements from multiple different state who are not taking to each other. It’s miserable.
That said, my big concern is that a federal law won’t be easy to make quick iterations to. Congress is slow as fuck. The US probably wouldn’t have any data privacy stuff in place if it weren’t for the states moving the ball forward. The states can move much much faster.
