This helps prevent identity fraud and other forms of stealing. Because this prevents stealing, it is less likely to happen - saving sellers and consumers money and time. It also prevents the consumer from being at fault if a company is responsible for the release of this information. murk_khuhro https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135757564 2016-11-07 13:47:22 UTC https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135757564 This law makes me more comfortable putting money into my debit card, knowing that there is little chance of fraud. My rights and private information are being protected. It also makes me a lot more comfortable buying things online, knowing that those sellers cannot give out my personal information. There are similar laws in other states. murk_khuhro https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135760405 2016-11-07 13:53:48 UTC https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135760405 murk_khuhro https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135763655 2016-11-07 14:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/murk_khuhro/r0otwl4i3qj3/wish/135763655
