Great news! One thought: if a "verifiable request" to delete personal data, in order to minimise the administrative burden, can be via a "password-protected account" i.e. the consumer can be identified via an authentication string in a cookie, then why not an HTTP request containing a UID cookies along with DNT:1. -----Original Message----- From: Aleecia M.

The governor just signed it into law. I get no credit / blame for this one, but those reading the text will notice it looks familiar. No coincidence. Parts of DNT will live on in this legislation that covers 40 million people. Unlike DNT, UI was not out of scope. Ah, I won’t spoil it, I’ll let you read the bill [1] yourselves. The law does not come into force until 2020. There will undoubtedly be a great deal of interest in “clean up” legislation. On Monday I join the faculty at Carnegie Mellon based at the Silicon Valley campus. Be seeing you, Aleecia [1] http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180AB375
