Even with a lack of national data privacy law, states such as New Jersey, Delaware, and Minnesota have data privacy laws due to take effect in 2025, and more may be on the way in the years to come. That state-level enforcement will join a patchwork of policy in the United States that already includes notable data privacy laws from the likes of California, Texas, and Florida.
Big Tech tends to make headlines when fines get issued for running afoul of data privacy policies, but most every company works with data collected or shared across state lines.

Adhering to data privacy regulations in one state or on the international stage does not guarantee that every jurisdiction will be satisfied.
