Beta

This bill sets rules around implanting identification devices into or onto a person's body without their consent, making such actions legally actionable. It also strengthens existing law against placing tracking devices on someone without permission, while carving out an exception that allows parents to track their minor children. Kentuckians who believe an identification or tracking device was implanted or placed on them without consent would have a defined window of time to file a legal claim. Who it may affect: parents of minor children, and individuals concerned about unauthorized tracking or implanted identification devices.
