It's scary just how dumb mankind is to fall for the same trick again and again. Their agenda is data accumulation, and they first forced a data-bank into whatever institution they can get away with it, and now they're offering to legislate the "right" to allow their slaves to access the database, thereby protecting the existence of the database and the criminal data accumulation process behind a legal wall.

Force a private company to adopt a standard because "why not?" or "Sounds good". Where do we draw the line? Force Apple to use USB C? Force companies to use specific batteries? What is the limits of government forcing private companies on how to run their business? How much different is this than bag laws and straw laws and soda laws? These aren't laws based on anything specific other than "muh feels". It is dangerous ground to make laws like these and while you cheer for the ones that give you something you will not be happy about the ones that force you to do things. The correct way to implement something like this is via capitalism and choosing products on the free market that do what you want. You can still buy cars that don't send data.
