Cameron and Gabe dive into Healthline Media's record-breaking $1.55 million settlement for CCPA violations, examining whether such penalties are sufficient deterrents against improper sharing of sensitive health data.

• Healthline violated CCPA by sharing sensitive user health data with advertisers without proper consent
• First U.S. regulatory action against a company for disclosing "inferred sensitive data"
• Violation included failing to provide mechanisms to opt out of sensitive data sharing
• Discussion of whether fines proportional to company revenue would be more effective
• Comparison of data brokers to other harmful entities in society
• Brief preview of upcoming episode about a major data breach potentially larger than Equifax

Stay safe this holiday weekend and don't put fireworks where they don't belong! Tune in next time for our breakdown of a massive data breach of "epic proportions."
