Microsoft has stated they will honor CCPA nationwide. I would expect other tech companies to follow until national regulation catches up.

Many companies have adopted a one-size fits all approach, whereby the most restrictive legislation applies, regardless of jurisdiction where they do business. This reduces costs by minimizing duplication where possible. I suspect Microsoft's approach was likely driven in part by the additional costs needed to support two compliance regimes for their various products.
