⚖️ Montana just became the first U.S. state to ban law enforcement from purchasing personal data from brokers — and it’s a privacy milestone 🚫📱
Under this new law:
📍 Government agencies can’t buy sensitive data (location, biometrics, etc.) without a warrant
🔍 It closes a major loophole used to sidestep Fourth Amendment protections
📄 Agencies also can’t require people to waive rights through service terms
🧱 It sets a precedent for digital due process in a data-saturated world
This isn’t just a state law. It’s a model for what digital civil liberties legislation should look like nationwide.
