Impactful Policy Frameworks
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) - 2018 (Amended by CPRA 2020)
The CCPA grants California consumers new rights regarding their personal information, including the right to know what data is collected, to delete it, and to opt-out of its sale. The CPRA (2020) further expanded these rights and established the California Privacy Protection Agency.
Mashable must ensure robust data privacy practices, provide clear data opt-out mechanisms, and potentially face increased compliance costs.
Digital Services Act (DSA) - European Union (effective 2024)
While an EU regulation, the DSA aims to create a safer and more accountable online environment by imposing obligations on digital services, particularly large platforms, regarding content moderation, transparency, and consumer protection.
Though primarily EU-focused, the DSA's influence can set global standards, potentially impacting Mashable's content moderation policies and advertising practices if it serves EU users.
American Innovation and Choice Online Act (Proposed)
This bipartisan antitrust bill aims to prevent dominant online platforms from unfairly preferencing their own products or services, disadvantaging competitors. It focuses on large tech companies' market power.
If passed, this could affect how Mashable integrates with larger platforms for distribution and advertising, potentially promoting fairer competition for digital media publishers.
