The Cooper Davis and Devin Norring Act requires internet service providers and cloud computing services to report suspected drug trafficking involving fentanyl, methamphetamine, counterfeit substances, and illegally distributed prescription drugs to the Attorney General within 60 days of discovery, including detailed account information such as names, addresses, and IP addresses. Providers who fail to comply face criminal fines up to $190,000 for first violations and $380,000 for repeat violations, plus civil penalties for knowingly submitting false or incomplete reports. The bill protects provider privacy by prohibiting them from being required to monitor users or decrypt communications and prevents law enforcement from misusing the system through false reports. The Attorney General must publish annual reports tracking the number of reports received, conviction outcomes, and how reports were distributed across federal, state, and local agencies, while preserving reported materials for 90 days.
