Prohibits posting, publishing on the Internet, or disclosing certain information regarding military personnel.

This New Jersey bill (A 396) prohibits posting, publishing, or disclosing on the Internet the home address or unpublished phone number of active-duty military personnel, New Jersey National Guard members, or their spouses/children without consent. It directly affects military members and their families by preventing online exposure that could lead to harassment or safety risks. Violations carry criminal penalties (up to 5 years in prison for intentional acts) or require paying $1,000 per violation plus damages in civil lawsuits. Government agencies must obtain written permission before sharing such information online.
