"Despite the fact that California has one of the nation's most comprehensive data privacy laws, it's not always easy for people to exercise those privacy rights. A.B. 566 intends to make it easy by directing browsers to give all their users the option to tell companies they don't want personal information that's collected about them on the internet to be sold or shared."
"It should be easy for Californians to exercise our rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, but major internet browser companies are making it difficult for us to do that. @CAgovernor, sign AB 566 and give power to the consumers to protect their privacy!

California has one of the nation's most comprehensive data privacy laws, but many people cannot easily exercise their privacy rights. A.B. 566 would require internet browsers to provide users with an easy option to signal that they do not want their personal information sold or shared. The legislation aims to enable a universal browser-level opt-out that communicates consumer choices to companies. The measure seeks a gubernatorial signature by October 13, 2025. Sample social-media posts and platform handles are provided to mobilize public pressure on Governor Gavin Newsom and to highlight risks to vulnerable communities from online tracking.
