MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Assembly has passed a bill that would outlaw using GPS to track someone without their consent. Rep. Adam Neylon’s bill would make placing a GPS device on another person’s vehicle without consent or collecting information from a GPS device that has been placed without consent a misdemeanor punishable by up to nine months in jail and $10,000 in fines. The bill creates exceptions for police, parents and business owners tracking their company’s vehicles. Neylon, a Pewaukee Republican, introduced a similar bill near the end of the last legislative session nearly a year ago. The Assembly passed the measure unanimously then but the full Senate never voted on it before the session ended. The Assembly passed the bill on a voice vote Thursday. It goes next to the Senate.
