California is once again leading the nation on privacy. Governor Gavin Newsom just signed three new laws that will reshape how businesses manage user data, account deletion, and browser-based opt-outs. Together, these laws—the Opt Me Out Act, expanded data broker disclosure requirements, and new social media deletion rules—signal where CCPA enforcement is headed next. Companies should start preparing now, as compliance deadlines are just around the corner.

FTC Announces $7.5 Million Settlement Over Cancellation Practices
The FTC just announced a $7.5 million settlement with Chegg, alleging the company violated ROSCA by making it unnecessarily difficult for subscribers—mostly students—to cancel their online services. According to the FTC, Chegg’s cancellation process buried links, forced users through confusing flows and “save” attempts, and in some cases still charged consumers after cancellation.
The settlement requires Chegg to maintain a simple cancellation mechanism that is at least as easy as signing up—reaffirming the FTC’s ongoing focus on negative option compliance even after the Click to Cancel Rule was vacated.
