Relating to authorizing the disclosure of certain electronic customer data by a provider of an electronic communications service or a remote computing service in certain immediate life-threatening situations.

HB 2177 allows tech companies (like internet service providers and cloud storage services) to share certain customer data with government agencies when they reasonably believe an immediate life-threatening situation exists that requires urgent action to prevent death or serious injury. The law permits disclosure of electronic customer data - such as location or communication records - if the provider acts in good faith based on an immediate threat, overriding standard privacy restrictions. This applies specifically to situations where data sharing is necessary to stop an ongoing emergency, not for routine investigations. The bill does not require court orders or warrants for these disclosures but limits it to truly urgent scenarios where delay could cause harm.
