[转载]PI and EDRI letter against data retention

信息来源：http://www.edri.org/

Privacy International, supported by European Digital Rights, has prepared an urgent letter to the members of the LIBE committee of the European Parliament. On 27 September they will have a renewed vote about data retention. PI and EDRI urge all parties to reconfirm their initial rejection of the principle of systematic surveillance of all 450 million EU citizens and residents. The fact that meanwhile, the European Commission has launched a proposal for a directive does not free the Commission from the need to prove this measure is absolutely necessary in a democratic society.
