NJ business leaders overheard discussing ways to weaken to privacy law
Daniel’s Law is a New Jersey regulation designed to protect law enforcement officials, including judges and police officers, by keeping personal information such as home address and phone numbers private. One of the strictest US laws, it gives officials the right to sue companies that don’t comply. Now, an overheard call between leaders, including from the Association of National Advertisers (ANA), the Consumer Data Industry Association, and the data broker Acxiom, raised alarms they might work to weaken the law.
