"The US is dooming the future of the transatlantic data economy"

by J.C. DE MARTIN

January 17, 2018 David Meyer *The US is dooming the future of the transatlantic data economy** * /WELCOME to Connected Rights, your bump on the fist of digital rights news and analysis./ THE NSA’S WARRANTLESS INTERNET SURVEILLANCE POWERS look set to continue with minimal changes, after privacy activists failed to derail a bill extending the program: http://reut.rs/2EMbmAz While the authorisation of Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act – which allows US intelligence to spy on foreigners via Facebook and Google, and which incidentally scoops up loads of information about Americans too – is set to expire on Friday, the Senate narrowly voted on Tuesday to advance the bill that would renew the authorisation. The House of Representatives already voted last week, with a much wider margin, to do the same. For a brief moment last week, Donald Trump joined the ranks of those opposed to the six-year renewal, claiming that FISA might have been used by Barack Obama’s administration to spy on the Trump campaign. This contradicted the official White House line, which opposed any serious new constraints on the agencies’ surveillance powers – and that was the line that prevailed. THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES. The Privacy Shield data-transfer agreement between the EU and US is still the focus of scepticism among European privacy regulators, and top EU courts will have to rule on the legality – under EU fundamental rights – of other mechanisms that allow US firms to import European personal data.

Re: [nexa] online undercover investigative methods

by Vladimir Obretenov

>-------- Оригинално писмо -------- >От: Vladimir Obretenov astraliov(a)abv.bg >Относно: online undercover investigative methods >До: nexa(a)server-nexa.polito.it >Изпратено на: 17.01.2018 11:36 Dear colleagues, My colleague, Prof. Nicola Lugaresi told me that I may write to you if I have a question. I would like to compare the conducting of online undercover investigations in the European Member States. It is very difficult to obtain basic source materials for Italy. Could you please send me the bill on hacking as an undercover investigative method? Which are the substantive conditions for such a warrant? Is there mutual assistance provisions concerning the data transfer or other specific provisions? For example, is there a possibility for direct Cooperation with Foreign Service Providers? Could be used the proposed framework as a source of Inspiration for Future European Legal Instruments or improvements to networks? Thanks so much for your help! Kind regards, Vl.Obretenov
