I do not mind people collecting data about me. I do think that we need to have a restriction that if you collect data about me, you have to share it with me. All of it. In a accessible manner, at least as accessible as you do in your reports.

Every day that you fail/delay to provide me those reports, you will pay me $100k in damages.




For what damages?



Punitive damages never stand on their own, they're always accompanied with compensatory damages. Good luck proving privacy violations directly result in loss, injury, or harm suffered -- information sharing agreements between law enforcement agencies and those interested in this information precludes any claims of negligence or recklessness.
