Hello there,
Our names are Colin and Mohamed, and we’re both journalists at CalMatters and The Markup.
If you haven’t heard yet, California is offering a new way for people to protect their data — and we want your help tracking its rollout and effectiveness.
Data brokers are largely unknown companies that make a business out of collecting often-sensitive data on consumers. That data can include where you and your family are at all times, what you buy, what medications you’re taking and much more.
Starting at the beginning of this year, the California Privacy Protection Agency allowed residents of the state to sign up for the Delete Request and Opt-out Platform, or DROP. The tool lets consumers send an instant request to hundreds of data brokers, asking them to delete their data and stop tracking them.
The brokers are required to start processing those requests in August. We reported on the tool’s launch, and as new requests are processed, we’ll keep following the story.
CalMatters and The Markup want to keep tabs on whether data companies comply with DROP, and that’s where we need your help.
Californians have the right to know about the personal information a business collects about them and to control how it is used and shared. We’ll walk you through how to exercise those rights with some of the largest data brokers in the country and how to share what they tell you with us. Then, after the DROP deadline, we’ll walk you through how to do it again, and we’ll help you figure out if the information companies have about you changed, grew, or was deleted.
If you live in California, get started by following the steps in this article.
If you don’t live in California, but have friends or family in California who would be interested in helping us investigate, please share this article with them.
We appreciate the help!
Colin and Mohamed
Refaat Alathamna was born in the Gaza Strip in the late 1970s, when Israel still exercised control from within. Back then, it wasn’t all that unusual to go abroad to study, and Refaat decided to go far away, to a country he had never heard of. Decades later, what he learned in there would end up saving his life.

I’m Dan Piraro, the creator of the Bizarro newspaper comic, and this is my weekly blog post. The large Sunday comic above is mine, as are all of the below-cartoon comments to follow.
Since January 2018, the Monday-Saturday Bizarro comics have been written and drawn by my comics partner, Wayno. For more fun, check out Wayno’s weekly blog post.
And here’s this week’s ANSWER KEY to my Sunday comic’s Secret Symbols.
Welcome to the jar, Pickles of Jazz. Thanks for dropping in.
A couple of weeks ago, I asked you to help us pick some new T-shirt designs. You voted, and we listened.
We’ve just launched a bunch of new shirt designs, as well as a travel mug (they’re calling a “tumbler”), a water bottle, and a few coffee mug designs.
There are seven new shirt designs in various colors, and three new Secret Symbol shirts that you’ll love. LOOK AT’EM HERE.
NOTE: THE V-NECK LADIES’ STYLES HAVE NOT YET BEEN POSTED, BUT WILL BE ADDED NEXT WEEK. THEY PROMISED ME!
Sorry to say that at this time, we couldn’t add all of the suggestions our cherished Jazz Pickles requested, but we appreciate your contributions and will continue to expand our offerings.
In the meantime, please purchase a dozen of each product in all colors and styles available, and donate the ones you don’t want to a local charity. That should spiff up your tarnished karma quite nicely!
Time now to view Wayno’s attempts to polish his karma by donating chuckles in the form of the week’s Bizarro cartoons…
You’ll feel better soon after he runs out of bananas.
No method of societal change is more effective than bumper opinions.
I particularly like Wayno’s version of our Bizarro Alien in this one.
Being a centaur is challenging enough, but this poor schmuck got stuck with Shetland Pony genes.
When Lucy pulls up, she waits till he’s about to grab the door handle and steps on the gas.
It has been my personal experience that chickens never fall for a chicken costume. Of course, it may also have been because I am five times larger than they are.
That’s the bell for recess, Jazz Pickles. Before you go out to play, please consider helping us keep this nonsense going and free of charge. We enjoy enchucklating you and appreciate the loan of your eyes for a few minutes each week.
