Stop LAPD Spying files California Public Records Act lawsuit v. LAPD to force release of contracts with Flock.

LAPD routinely flouts the CPRA when it matters and sadly but predictably the only remedy the law provides is a civil lawsuit. Recovery of fees and costs to prevailing plaintiffs is essentially mandatory, but the LAPD doesn't care. It's not their money and it's worth it to them to delay the release of important records for the year or two it can take to get a court order.

Link to full petition in reply.

CCPA/CPRA isn’t just an opt-out link—it’s a full data governance regime.
You now need:
• documented retention limits
• updated vendor + contractor contracts
• risk assessments for high-risk processing
• clear rules for “selling” AND “sharing” data
Yet studies show only ~11% of companies were fully compliant, and 92% were still unprepared as of 2022.
Most organizations are still catching up.

California privacy enforcement now getting interesting with firms being ordered to take responsibility for their dodgy third party privacy tools, and not to require malicious verification for opt outs https://www.mondaq.com/unitedstates/privacy-protection/1621972/california-privacy-protection-agency-enters-stipulated-final-order-regarding-dsar-process #ccpa #cpra

ICYMI: the CA Privacy Protection Agency proposed regulations that will cost the California economy billions of dollars and tens of thousands of jobs, but it's OK because entrepreneurs eventually will create billions of dollars and hundreds of thousands of jobs helping companies comply with those regulations 🤷‍♂️ #CCPA #CPRA https://cppa.ca.gov/regulations/pdf/ccpa_updates_cyber_risk_admt_ins_notice.pdf

I made one post on the #cisco "community forum" about a decade ago.

Today, the Forum sent spam to a bunch of people, reminding us we had accounts there.

I went to delete mine and found THERE IS NO "DELETE MY PROFILE" OPTION!

Only after pointing out the requirements and penalties under the #CPRA and #GDPR did I get a response.

Here, Gentle Reader, let me save you some hassle:
