What Is Communications Privacy Law?
Communications privacy law in the U.S. is addressed in the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA) and within other federal laws, such as the Telecommunications Act. The ECPA of 1986 makes it a crime to intercept wire, voice, or electronic communications. The Act also outlines interception procedures involving law enforcement. The Stored Communications Act, which is often referred to in conjunction with ECPA, protects electronic communications’ privacy and determines how government may legally access stored communications.
