welcome to denmark, our current government is one composed a liberal(classical liberal for you americafags) and conservative party, backed by a national socialist party. This is why i vote socialist, to protect the privacy and democratic rights of the people of denmark.

Welcome to the 80s.

I don't really see how EU can do this. It's against human rights, isn't it?

no, not really. The human rights charter has a security for private life part in it. This new law requires the telecommunications and ISPs to save information on calls made and emails/SMS/MMS's sent, not the content of them. The information will also only be available for the police if it is needed for investigation of crimes of a certain degree of seriousness, or terrorist investigations. And the private life part of the human rights convention is pretty undefined.

So in essense it isn't 'that' bad, but it's a slippery slope that i'm very much against taking, futhermore, it is very possible to work around these things if you really want to, so against people who really want to do stuff, i'ts practically useless.

But, depending on what you do, the information that I have sent a ceritain email could be as bad as knowing the content of it. (If they know to who I send it, which I got the impression they would (or was that only phone calls?))


And, tracking cell phones?

From Piratpartiet.se:

"Enligt direktivet ska också alla medborgares rörelser genom staden kartläggas och sparas. Mobiltelefonoperatörer ska pejla in mobiltelefoner och kartlägga hur de har rört sig. Uppgifterna ska lagras i upp till två år."

"Acording to the directive all citizen's movements through the city should be maped out and saved. The phone operators ahould track cell phones and map how they have moced. The information is saved up to two years."

That sounds like a very non-private life.
