New Jersey Legislature Enacts the First Consumer Privacy Law of 2024

On January 16, 2024, New Jersey’s Governor signed Senate Bill (SB) 332, which establishes a consumer data privacy law for the state. New Jersey becomes the 13th state to pass a consumer data consumer privacy law. The law would take effect one year after its enactment, on January 16, 2025.

Under the law, a consumer has the following rights:

  • To confirm whether a controller processes the consumer’s personal data and access such personal data.
  • To correct inaccuracies in the consumer’s personal data.
  • To delete personal data concerning the consumer.
  • To obtain a copy of the consumer’s data.
  • To opt out of the processing of personal data for the purposes of targeted advertising, the sale of personal data, or profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning the consumer.

Transforming the military for the AI age requires ‘a certain ruthlessness,’ say US, UK experts

Drone warfare in Ukraine shows that low-cost unmanned systems are already revolutionizing warfare. China is on the march in high-tech weapons and artificial intelligence. So it’s growing too late for the US and UK to make a gradual “managed transition” to the new technologies, warns a newly released report.

Instead, argue a team of experts from the London-based Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) and the Arlington, Va., Special Competitive Studies Project (SCSP), the two nations need determined military and civilian leaders to impose at least some “immediate transformational change” on the armed services from the top down.
