AdExchanger examines how consumers will react to the upcoming California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA). "[P]ublishers and advertisers will have to show the opt-out button to California residents who haven’t yet opted out every time they visit a site and on nearly every page," wrote AdExchanger.

"Even if someone doesn’t opt out the first time, eventually they’ll probably click that button, said Bob Perkins, COO of BritePool," per AdExchanger.
