Data Privacy Now!

Today, technology has far outpaced privacy law. Data brokers and Big Tech are free to do almost anything they want with our personal information, including selling our cellphone location data on the open market. These practices endanger all of us, but especially vulnerable communities like immigrants, protesters, and people seeking and providing reproductive and gender-affirming healthcare. It's time for our privacy law to catch up to the digital age!

Use our toolkit and conversation guide to advocate for change in your community, and check out ACLU's national resource guide for additional information.
