Wait, I thought cali was best when it came to consumer rights. This is a strange divergence. I had to re-read the title because I thought surely the state would be on the side of opt’ing in to the sale of user’s data.

They are only pro-consumer when it doesn’t evolve Big Tech. They are owned by Big Tech…

Because he is the governor? If it goes back to the state legislators and gets a super majority it can become law

Ok, i rephrase. Why can the governor veto?

Imagine, if a Kanton could veto in an Abstimmung.

…because that’s the job of the governor. They are the head of the executive branch of the state. You you have the balance of power between the executive, legislative and judicial.

vetoing this is disappointing to say the least and

it should be the other way around;
users should be asked first if they’d like to opt-in first
