The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered.
Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again.
Their inaction is deadly.

That's the thing about people: if you tell them not to do something, especially without a good justification, they're gonna have an instinct to rebel.
Besides, bad actors both in and out of China can (and already do) buy the same data from databrokers anyway. It literally doesn't matter.
