Total communication surveillance in EU countires

Post by edhead »

Yeah OK, I admit that 3 years in da EU for Lithuania is like, 9/11 times a thousand, but it's only now when we have to accept a law according to this shit, which is already legislated in most other EU countries. This crap (namely, total Data retention Legislation) makes Orwell roll over in his grave (and brings EU too close to a police state society), so what do you fellow European (and what not) DACers think about all this Patriot-Act-ish bullshit in EU?

It's only a logical step, more EU and centralism means more power for fewer people who haven't even been legitimized by the populace, hence even less democracy.

Not like anyone cares :/

in 5 years we will be living in gated communities with private security, & all the poor can get fucked and relocated to densely populated shanty towns in lithuania that will constantly be ruined by tropical storms from the arctic ocean :medievalism:

You have never been at war with Eurasia. Eurasia has always been your friend.

The EU does not want the member states to do this before at least 2009 or 2011. However, Denmark has done this since Sept. 15th of 2007. Sweden, Germany & Great Britain have been against this from the start, especially the whole internet surveillance thing...

The obviously feel that the internet thing is a bit much and would be satisfied wih much less control & survellaiance in the EU, say just for cell phones as these has been proven to be used in the terrorists attacks in Madrid and London. (and just to be clear in this, no, I don't condone any terrorists attacks for whatever reasons --- ever....)

The thing is,however, that in Denmark all internet & phone & internet providers are being forced to by law to save any&all digital data trafficking. This means any internetwebsite, (or package), cell phone number and normal phone number.

When I call to say my bank or my big sister or order a train ticket on the phone, the authorities could in theory get access to that information. Why the would need to know that I called my bank or ordered a train ticket to another city, I don't know. Or rather I'd do. The authorities are so afraid of DK being hit by a terrorist bomb, that they are out to make all people in all EU member states be seen as potential terrorists, thus creating a sense of fear in the populations of the EU member states which mean that they more easily can control the situation - and the population...

In Denmark, the ISP number of the computer dialing out is stores, the is the ISP number of say DuckandCover, or NMA or say gameboomers.com
When I phone my bank, the phone companies are now required to make a note of my phone number, the bank's phone number, how long I talked to the bank, and some other stuff, I forgot about. The same goes for cell phones. But wait, there's more...

All hotels, from the smallest Bed&Breakfasts to the biggest Sheraton Hotels need also do this, i.e. they need to record both the internet traffic and the phone calls, their guests make. Really really experience this is. However, libraries, residential areas, and universities, schools and colleges are free from these demands. Maybe understandably so, but it makes little that you can use a computer at the library freely or at an internet café....when small bed and breakfast places with maybe 50 or so beds shall do this...

Thus making the whole population under suspicion. The security police, STASI (staatssicherheitsdienst) in the now closed DDR would have been so proud. They never had the opportunities our legal elected represen-tatives now are given to the security police in the EU member states.
