I think that the enforcement part is key, I’m very skeptical.

It likely won’t start until July 2020, and it’s hard to imagine the state AG prioritizing this except for cases you mention - very high profile/political.

Current estimates are that out of roughly 500,000 businesses in scope, only 2% will be in compliance by January 1st. Though to be fair, GDPR numbers were fairly similar at the onset.

Regardless of my skepticism, I can’t help but feel this is better than nothing, and likely better than an even more diluted federal regulation that all the big corps are lobbying for.
