CIPA Private Right of Action Kept, Shifting Privacy to Research

California's legislature passed a compromise version of SB-690, maintaining most of the private right of action provisions of the California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA). This means that juries, rather than regulators, will set privacy standards in the state, as individuals can sue companies for online tracking practices. With over 4,000 CIPA lawsuits filed, mostly against legitimate businesses, the shift emphasizes the need for companies to align data practices with consumer (and juror) expectations. The author argues that privacy compliance should now be research-driven, focusing on customer attitudes, rather than purely legal compliance. This could lead to a competitive advantage for customer-centric businesses over Big Tech, which may face greater legal exposure.

• California passed a compromise version of SB-690, preserving most of the private right of action under CIPA.
• More than 4,000 CIPA lawsuits have been filed, mostly against legitimate businesses.
• A jury verdict against Meta involved data collection from the Flo menstrual tracking app.
