The UK Open Rights Group has just published "
Why the Snoopers’ Charter is the wrong approach: A call for targeted and accountable investigatory powers,"
a digital paper on why and how governments go terribly wrong with
Internet surveillance proposals, and what a reasonable and accountable
form of surveillance would look like. Jim Killock from ORG sez,
After the Snoopers' Charter debacle, the Open Rights Group asks why
intrusive new laws are being suggested, if they are needed at all and
what the alternatives are. Some of the UK's most prominent surveillance
experts examine the history of UK surveillance law and the challenges
posed by the explosion of digital datasets. Contributors include
journalist Duncan Campbell, legal expert Angela Patrick from Justice,
Richard Clayton of Cambridge University Computer Labs and Peter Sommer,
Visiting Professor at De Montfort University.
