Expectations for Data Privacy in 2019

This analysis of the California Consumer Privacy Act is quite good. It points out ways companies can comply, which gives consumers a good idea of changes to expect in 2019. Here are our thoughts on what consumers will see:

1. Explicit ‘Do Not Share My Data’ agreement options when using apps
2. Maps of your data history and who has accessed in the past
3. Spike in media coverage of additional breaches that have been covered up
4. Class action suites against companies who do not move quickly enough
5. ‘Payment for privacy’ agreements increasing costs to use data-rich applications
6. Legal uncertainty as California/National opposition appeals changes
7. The rise of personal data tracking applications that do mapping and access auditing automatically
