Investigation Reveals California DMV Sells Drivers’ Personal Data, Earning $50 Million Annually

I’m pretty sure that I remember, after Rebecca Schaeffer was murdered by a subhuman fragment of solid digestive waste who got her home address from the DMV, that California passed a law specifically prohibiting the DMV from giving out drivers’ personal information to those who had no clear business receiving such information. On looking things up, now, I am not finding any reference to any such California state law, but that Ms. Schaeffer’s murder did prompt the enactment of the federal Driver’s Privacy Protection Act of 1994, to a similar effect.

Surely, what is being reported in this article is very much illegal under that law.
