Legislation has been introduced in the California Assembly that would create a new California regulatory agency, the California Data Protection Authority (CDPA) to regulate Californians’ personal data on the internet. All technology companies that serve Californians on the internet would be regulated by the new agency. The legislation was inspired by the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation.
The legislation, AB 2182, http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB2182, is very brief:
"It is the intent of the Legislature to enact line 2 legislation that would create a new state agency or officer that line 3 would be charged with, among other things, protecting the personal line 4 information of California residents."
A Mercury News article states if enacted the new agency would enact regulations that ban social media websites from conducting potentially harmful psychological experiments on users, create ways for Californians to erase certain profiles and personal information, and standardize online user agreements.
