I don't care what you're 'leaning' towards or what you can do without, this is about what's good for the nation.

This kind of legislation is not pertinent to the average citizen and this whole debate is being conducted in an environment of hysteria around the cambridge analytica episode which is being fueled by political opportunism.

How an individual's data is or is not handled is not pertinent to that individual? That seems an absurd position to take much less impose onto others via some sort of princely directive.

It would seem like you have skin in the game of free-wheeling and dealing with folks and their data. That or just some passion without premise. What's good for the nation is (re)adapting to privacy - likewise its peoples and doubly so for the state. I also don't see your directive influencing those people's actions either, so it appears some other people disagree, too.
