Hermes cc3976fb7f ideas: editorial sweep — atomization, interlinking, restructuring
- Split competitive-analysis-2026-05.org → TOC + 9 competitor files in
  ideas/competitors/. Dropped date from filename. All competitor UUIDs
  generated, TOC keeps original UUID for backlink continuity.
- Deleted passepartout-economics.org archive (replaced by 27-node KB).
- Inlined 5 'See also' blocks into natural prose (compliance-index,
  first-mover-window, revenue-table, orders-of-magnitude-time,
  native-org-knowledge-base).
- Linked 7 orphan compliance pages back to compliance index + finished
  truncated sentences.
- Linked all 14 Agora requirement docs from topic-relevant pages
  (identity→lisp-machine-security, infrastructure→compute-marketplace,
  social-space→growth-strategy, exchange→agora-contracts, etc.).
- Linked ai-industry-impact from investment-thesis, sufficiency-flip,
  verification-appliance, effects-growth-flywheel (up from 1 to 10+ pages).
- Fixed CREATED timestamps to use git commit dates instead of today.
- Made all links absolute from root (no port inheritance).
- Removed stale agora/docs/ duplicate content.

CCPA/CPRA (California Consumer Privacy Act)

California's comprehensive privacy law — the closest US analogue to GDPR. CPRA (effective 2023) amended and strengthened CCPA. Key rights: right to know, delete, opt out of sale/sharing, correct inaccurate data, limit use of sensitive PI. Private right of action for data breaches.

Who must comply: For-profit businesses with >$25M revenue, or handling >100K consumer records, or deriving >50% revenue from selling PI. Extraterritorial — applies to any business collecting CA resident data.

Penalties: $2,500 per violation (intentional: $7,500). Private right of action for breaches: $100-$750 per incident per consumer. CPRA created the California Privacy Protection Agency (CPPA) for enforcement.

Why it matters: The opt-out/sale/sharing requirements create complex data flow gate rules. The gate stack can encode "this data flow crosses a CCPA boundary"
