This bill, the "Fourth Amendment Is Not For Sale Act," aims to prevent law enforcement and intelligence agencies from obtaining certain customer or subscriber records from third parties in exchange for anything of value. The key provisions of the bill include: 1. Defining "covered customer or subscriber records" and prohibiting law enforcement and intelligence agencies from obtaining these records or any "illegitimately obtained information" from third parties in exchange for anything of value. 2. Limiting the sharing of such records and information between government agencies, and prohibiting the use of this information as evidence in any legal proceedings. 3. Requiring a court order for the government to compel a third party to disclose a covered customer or subscriber record or any illegitimately obtained information, applying the most stringent legal standard. 4. Prohibiting intermediary service providers from knowingly divulging the contents of communications or information about their customers or subscribers to any person or entity, including the government. 5. Establishing the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) as the exclusive means for the government to acquire certain types of communications records, location information, web browsing history, and other information for foreign intelligence purposes. The bill aims to strengthen protections for individual privacy and the Fourth Amendment's guarantee against unreasonable searches and seizures, particularly in the context of digital communications and records.
