Really looking forward to this webinar! @DanielSolove: we're in the "golden age of privacy law", at least in terms of the number of laws. He's been critical of many of them. Let's discuss!

Up early today to head down to Olympia for the hearing on #SB6281, the (very bad) Washington Privacy Act. Hopefully, I'll be live-tweeting on this thread.

Here's a chart from @ACLU_WA highlighting just some of the problems with SB6281. @ACLU_WA And if you're in Washington State, please let ask your legislators to OPPOSE SB6281 in its current form.

@SEAindivisible has an action item up, with a ample script and instructions on how to contact your legislators, at facebook.com/SeattleIndivis…
