GDPR inspiring other countries to consider privacy legislation

CNBC reports on how the EU General Data Protection Regulation is influencing other countries as the law reaches its three-year anniversary. Access Now Senior Policy Analyst Estelle Masse considers the spirit of the GDPR to be a driving force for the California Privacy Rights Act, noting "they were both providing more rights and protections to the user." Professionals also view the EU law as eventually spurring action on a federal level in the U.S. while already doing so in Brazil and India.
