Perfid: Terroristen haben kommuniziert-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Jospin nichts anderes eingefallen, als das Internet zu verdächtigen, es wäre zum Zwecke der Kommunikation unter Terroristen missbraucht worden.

The emerging response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks--and its impacts on personal privacy--was the principal item of discussion throughout the Sept. 24-26 conference, attended by more than 500 government and law enforcement officials, business leaders, privacy advocates and academics. Jospin's speech was in the mainstream of views offered by data commissioners. The French Prime Minister said that evidence the Internet had been used to plan the terrorist attacks justified the extension of surveillance powers. But he insisted that government create special oversight procedures as a "necessary counter- balance" to any new wiretap powers. Freedom vs. Security Similarly, Jospin admitted the inconsistencies posed by a liberalization of crytography for individual use and the recognition that criminal or terrorist organizations may also use such tools to encode their on-line activities. "The possibility for criminals to use these techniques, which are now available to all, justifies the adoption of judicial means to the fight against this new form of crime," Jospin said. Jospin also called for the creation of a harmonized international framework on cybercrime, a message delivered to the conference Sept. 24 by French President Jacques Chirac. Jospin took Chirac's call a step further, noting that governments should agree not to tolerate the use of the Internet for the transmission of racist, anti- Semitic, negationist or other forms of hate speech. Jospin's closing address also hit on a number of other issues on the conference agenda. He suggested that company cybersurveillance be subject to strict regulation, echoing comments from panelists in a Sept. 25 conference on privacy in the workplace, and urged the European Union to consider drafting legislation that would forbid the sale of personal health or medical data without the express prior consent of patients. Formal Discussions in Future Next year's 24th International Conference of Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners--scheduled for Sept. 9-11, 2002, in Cardiff, Wales, the United Kingdom--will take place in more formal circumstances after closed-door discussions between government officials led to the creation of a new body: the International Conference of Data Protection Authorities. A charter for the new multilateral personal data protection authority establishes rules defining the type of independent governmental bodies eligible for membership and the level of legal and adminstrative competence such bodies must have. The Paris Agreement also establishes a "credentials committee" charged with examining applications for membership and a system of auto-evaluation for existing members. Further information on the 23rd International Conference of Data Protection Commissioners, as well as the new International Conference of Data Protection Authorities, is available via Internet: http://www.cnil.fr. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 2001-09-28 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
