It doesn't directly prevent insecure systems, but discouraging companies from storing information they don't need and transferring it on to third parties for whatever reason they feel like massively reduces most people's exposure to this risk.

If you believe people have a right to privacy, then you believe they have a right to decide who gets to know what information about them.

- riffraff 8y agoThat's not what's grandparent wrote, it wrote that you have a right to know what is done with your data. Nothing restricts what others can do with them, they just have to state it so I can decide whether that's ok for me or not. The lack of this clearly defies the right to privacy, just consider the extreme case of "I'll dump your data on GitHub next week"
