Columnist hiltzikm writes, 'The business community’s campaign to reduce California’s landmark privacy law to a shadow continues apace, with what privacy advocates call the biggest threat due for a committee hearing this week.'

The bill also would exempt businesses from the data limitation in order to “exercise, defend, or protect against legal claims,” or to protect against fraud or hacking, or to assist “another person or government agency” to conduct any of those activities.

Nothing in that language limits the exemption to making possible data exchanges between businesses and government entities to assist with legitimate governmental programs or services. “This provision is so unfathomably broad that a company could do anything it wants,” Brookman told me. “There’s no guardrailing at all.”

Cooley says he’s open to amending his law along the lines proposed by the committee analysis. That would mean narrowing the exemptions so they explicitly apply to providing a consumer’s personal data to a government agency solely for the agency’s legitimate needs. The business would be prohibited from selling to anyone else the data collected or held for those purposes.

It sounds as though the Assembly committee will be on top of the shortcomings in 1416 when it comes up for scrutiny Tuesday. But the warning bell has been sounded: Beware of business interests trying to chip away at a landmark law by suggesting it puts children at risk.
