13. Impossible!

CA can not require out-of-state ISP's or websites to do such 'purges' of data. Not to mention the fact that most if not all of the Internet web pages are preserved on www.archive.org.

If this is allowed to stand, CA residents will see many companies avoiding this kind of 'purging of data' by simply not being available to them in that state.

And like others have said, why only children? Why can't adults have the same right?

It is always about 'protecting the children' yet the ideas are usually useless, political grand-standings that penalize adults who don't or would not 'harm' children or minors of any age.
