What they've already sold may already be out there, true, but more importantly the ccpa gives you the right to opt out of future collection.

Shotgunning the request to the major players may not give 100% coverage, but I think it would at least reduce the amount of identifying information out there which seems like it would be better than status quo.

I'm curious if anyone has tried this at all.

If too many people opt out, they just set up a new company and boom! No one has requested they get rid of the data or not collect it.

Opt-in is the only way to make this work, and that's why it will never get passed.
