Kelsey Smith Act
Nebraska Kelsey Smith ActThis law requires wireless carriers, on request of a law enforcement agency, to provide a device's call location information (including historical cell-site data) as soon as practicable in an emergency involving risk of death or serious physical harm. It makes a narrow, emergency-only exception to location privacy and shields carriers from liability for such disclosures.
