And even though it’s being labeled as a “consumer privacy law” it was actually spurred by a politician getting upset that people might find out what he was renting. It was a self-serving law that had the side effect of also helping consumers.
I wonder if there’s any case law that could support applying that law to other media, such as preventing streaming sites from handing watch history over to the media.

Wasn’t it because a couple of anti-porn politicians were outed as having renting porn tapes (yet another thing that doesn’t really exist anymore)
IIRC that was what happened.
