Leaked doc: Europe's justice chiefs forming plans to cosy up to ISPs

Europe’s justice ministers appear to be forming plans to make it easier to access ISPs' data, as part of a series of proposals intended to limit the spread of online radicalising material.

I don't think anyone has a problem with an intelligence led judicial process as a tool for the counter terrorism forces

But that's not what they want, or what they want it for...

And there doesn't seem to be any remit or penalties on data security ?

Dear Law-makers

It's simple. I am not a terrorist, therefore there is no reason or justification for you or anyone else storing details of my movements, my activities, my financial transactions or my contacts.

If that person over there is reasonably suspected of terrorist activities then the police should be able to ask a senior judge nicely (with their reasons, obviously) for an order permitting them to request that various bodies start recording details of that person's movements, activities and communications etc. and pass them to the police.

Is that so difficult to understand?

Yours sincerely

A law-abiding citizen.

Maybe be could organise meeting to discuss it ? There's a nice clearing near the river at Runnymede.

I want radicalising material on the internet ...

... where it can be publicly debunked. The only reason to suppress would be if it were all true. Are they talking about MP's expenses?

MS got a request for data over the Charlie Hebdo attacks

And they gave the data in 45 minutes, including checking if the claim was legal (which it was).

The current system works. There is no need for these powers.

I don't get it.

What the heck does having complete records from the PNR have to do with the Charlie Hebdo attacks? Unless that somehow also covers automobiles?

Re: I don't get it.

It doesn't. Everyone's adding their bright idea onto the wishlist on the back of a tragedy.
