The Body Parents Bill
Kentucky bill limits body tracking, lets parents track kids
AN ACT relating to identification devices.
Good for everyday people ·
This bill would stop people from putting tracking devices in or on others without permission, but parents could still track their own children.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
This bill aims to protect your body and belongings from unwanted tracking. It would make it against the rules for someone to put a tracking device on you or your stuff without you saying yes. This is good because it helps keep your private space private. However, it would also let parents track their own children, which some people might see as a good way for parents to keep kids safe, while others might worry about children's privacy. Since this bill is still new, now is the time to tell your lawmakers what you think about who should be allowed to track whom.
