As much as I hate more legislation I think the only way to solve this is to make it very onerous to own and compile this data and to level heavy fines (as in criminal charges and/or force the company into bankruptcy via 90% revenue fines) in cases when the database is breached. Everything else will just turn into an arms race between those who don't wanna be tracked and those who wanna track. If the US did something like the GDPR but in our constitution I wouldn't be surprised if a cottage industry opened up overnight in secure data-warehousing. I get that it would complicate things for small companies but we brought this on ourselves.
