Bill Summary

Establishes provisions relating to reverse keyword and reverse location searches

AI Summary

This bill establishes the "Reverse Location and Reverse Keyword Search Prohibition Act" in Missouri. It prohibits courts from issuing "reverse location" or "reverse keyword" court orders, which would compel the disclosure of information identifying individuals based on their search history or location data. The bill also prohibits government entities from seeking or using such orders or making voluntary requests for this type of information. If evidence is obtained through these prohibited means, it must be suppressed. Individuals whose information is obtained in violation of the act can file a civil lawsuit and recover damages. The bill includes exceptions for lawfully seized or searched electronic devices.
