Criminal procedure; prohibiting reverse-location or reverse-keyword court orders; codification; effective date.
HB 1913 prohibits Oklahoma law enforcement and government entities from seeking or using "reverse-location" or "reverse-keyword" court orders or requests. Reverse-location orders would compel tech companies to share location data of unspecified people in an area (e.g., near a crime scene), while reverse-keyword requests would demand records of people searching specific terms online. The bill bans these tactics entirely, makes any data obtained through them inadmissible in court, and allows affected individuals to sue for $1,000 per violation plus attorney fees. It directly protects Oklahomans whose personal digital activity or location might otherwise be swept up in broad government data requests.
