The root issue is that organizations collected and monetized personal data in ways consumers neither fully understood nor consented to, raising serious privacy and fairness concerns. New York City's ban, following Seattle's lead, signals a regulatory tide that organizations ignoring data use limitations will increasingly face significant fines.
