Vermont Electronic Communication Privacy Act

Requires Vermont law enforcement to get a warrant, a recognised warrant exception, user consent or an emergency justification before compelling service providers to hand over protected user information, and to notify the targets. It bans real-time interception of communications content and cell-tower or GPS location except to find a fugitive under an arrest warrant. Service providers must produce warranted records within 30 days, or within 72 hours if the court orders it.
