Good. It is time to get rid of those corporate lobbyists that try to sniff for user data and then write up corporate laws. I would not understand in the slightest why my computer should provide any information about myself to the outside world - so why is the law suddenly changed? Who, aside from Meta, is pushing for this? Clearly the "but but but protect the kids!" is the red herring here. The whole law could have been worded differently than it was - that was not "accidental".
