Privacy in Communications (recording consent and interception)

Montana is an all-party-consent state for hidden recording: it is a crime to record a conversation with a hidden device without the knowledge of all parties, unless the parties were warned. It is also a crime to purposely intercept electronic communications without warning. A 2025 amendment (Ch. 686, L. 2025) added AI-generated ('digitally fabricated') intimate images to the image-disclosure and sextortion offenses.
