EDRI launches petition against data retention
European Digital Rights, together with the Dutch ISPs XS4ALL and
Bit, launched an international petition today against mandatory
data retention. The petition is aimed at the European Commission
and the members of the European Parliament.
EDRI argues that retention of telecommunication traffic data is an
invasive tool that interferes with the private life of all 450
million people in the European Union. Secondly, the petition points
out that data retention is illegal under Article 8 of the European
Convention on Human Rights, because it is disproportionate.
Thirdly, the petition explains that security gained from retention
may be illusory, as traffic data may easily point to another user
and finally, the means through which this policy is being pursued
are illegitimate.
In the next two months, EDRI hopes to collect an impressive amount
of signatures from all over Europe, to convince Commission and
Parliament that data retention is no solution against terrorism and
crime. Supporters are kindly invited to help distribute information
about this petition, by placing the banner on their sites or
homepages and spread the news through mailinglists.
The petition-initiative will be presented during the opening speech
of the open-air hacker event What the Hack, Thursday 28 July.
During and after the event, everybody is invited to contribute to
the website by adding translations in many other languages and
back-ground files.
The petition script uses confirmed opt-in to verify every
signature. This means everybody has to provide the organisers with
a valid e-mail address to receive the confirmation. The e-mail
address will not be used for any other purpose. Only the name and
country of every signer will be published publicly on the website
and presented to Commission and Parliament. The specific privacy
policy for this campaign guarantees that personal data will only be
used for this specific purpose and all personal data will be
destroyed after presentation of the list.
