Hello people!
The Commission has put out their public consultation questionnaire on #dataretention
Deadline: 12 September - we have time :)
WATCH OUT some of the questions are REALLY tricky and misguiding.
@edri will put out during the summer an answering guide to help you understand the intentions and context behind some of these questions & hopefully to avoid falling in some of these traps
Follow @edri and look out for the answering guide
Here’s a Subliminal Channel You Haven’t Considered Before
Scientists can manipulate air bubbles trapped in ice to encode messages.... https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2025/06/heres-a-subliminal-channel-you-havent-considered-before.html
Avviata dal 21 maggio al 18 giugno la consultazione pubblica con cui la UE vorrebbe chiedere di conservare i dati per MOOOLTO tempo
Il quesito sembrerebbe posto per far credere che la polizia E I SUOI FORNITORI non riescono a combattere il crimine a causa di normative di #DataRetention troppo eterogenee (=cioè "troppo restrittive" )
Grazie a @f00l per la segnalazione
@protonprivacy and @threemaapp: We offer super safe #privacy made in #Switzerland!
Switzerland: Let's ban #anonymity online and introduce #dataretention by decree without parliament.

Important pre-weekend read for all of us policy geeks and those who want to understand the details of #DataRetention jurisprudence:
