Online Marketplace Amendments
SB 108 prevents Utah cities and counties from creating rules for online marketplaces like Etsy or Airbnb. It specifically blocks local governments from regulating how these platforms operate or demanding user data without a court order. The law allows exceptions for short-term rental rules and for regulating people who use the platforms, not the platforms themselves.

MINOR
The bill text was updated to remove a reference to 'website or digital platform users' and streamline the list of exceptions for local governments. Additionally, the timestamp at the bottom was changed from a February 2026 date to a January 2026 date.
Scope change
The scope of the bill remains unchanged; it still prohibits municipalities and counties from regulating online marketplaces or demanding user data without a subpoena, with specific exceptions for short-term rentals and criminal enforcement.
TEXT
The phrase 'of the online marketplace's website or digital platform users' was shortened to just 'of the online marketplace's users' in the section prohibiting data requests.
TIMELINE
The timestamp at the bottom of the document was updated from '2-6-26 3:41 PM' to '1-26-26 12:07 PM', indicating a revision in the legislative process.
