Not to a great enough degree, though. Just try opting out of the major data collectors, such as LN or credit rating agencies, and see how that goes.

Also, it does nothing for people who aren't in California.

California's law is much better than nothing, but it's not as good as the GDPR and the GDPR isn't really adequate.
