Only a few days after the European elections, the EU governments like repeat offenders want to reinstate the #dataretention of contacts and movement data of the entire population in violation of our fundamental rights. https://digitalcourage.de/blog/2019/vorratsdatenspeicherung-eu-rat-juni-2019

This indiscriminate blanket retention must be stopped. Nobody can be elected President of the Commission who supports #dataretention! #StopMassSurveillance

11 (!) Verfassungsklagen greifen das deutsche Gesetz zur #Vorratsdatenspeicherung an.

Am 7.6. will die #Bundesregierung die Telefon- und Internetüberwachung auf EU-Ebene mit planen:

"What happens on your iPhone stays on your iPhone. Our privacy experiment showed 5,400 hidden app trackers guzzled our data — in a single week" => https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2019/05/28/its-middle-night-do-you-know-who-your-iphone-is-talking/

Et dire que les Apple fans y croyaient "ouaaais la vie privée sous iMachin c'est top prioritaire pour Apple, le prophète Steve Jobs l'a dit avant de mourir"

Ben en fait non. Comme d'hab en fait.

US-Behörden wollen Telekommunikation in Europa abhören. Damit will die EU die Trump-Administration gewogen machen, im Gegenzug „elektronische Beweismittel“ direkt bei Facebook & Co. abfragen zu dürfen. #ShareDichDrum

@lunduke said this would be, or is about to become something awesome. I didn’t want to miss out on that, so I got onboard as well. Not quite Facebook yet. 😁 6000 people and counting. But it could get there eventually.

Most "duress mode" safeguards are misguided movie threat fantasies, would put you at more risk in real life. Instead, cross borders w/o sensitive data, comply w/ searches w/o smuggling. You are a bad liar, customs agents are pro lie detectors. #infosec

Die #Vorratsdatenspeicherung lebt noch. Aber Bundesnetzagentur will Daten nur anonymisiert rausrücken. Speicherfristen als Betriebs- und Geschäftsgeheimnisse?
