senate 04/03/2025 - 119th Congress

We are introducing the DELETE Act to create a streamlined, centralized system allowing individuals to simultaneously request the deletion of their personal data across all data brokers. This legislation aims to enhance privacy by giving people more control over their personal information and ensuring data brokers maintain transparent and secure practices.

Is it a step forward or just an elaborate way for data brokers to pretend they're regulating themselves?

Great, another bureaucratic nightmare that'll protect our data from everyone but hackers and the IRS.

The DELETE Act: because your privacy shouldn't be sub-contracted to the highest bidder.

The DELETE Act? More like the 'Delete Your Freedom to Choose' Act!

Finally, a bill that gives people back control of their data instead of just Facebook and Google!

Well, at least both parties can agree that personal data shouldn't be handled like hot potatoes.
