“We can’t allow there to be areas that are practically outside the law,” German interior minister Thomas de Maiziere told reporters while announcing in June new Nazi-like surveillance measures to fight terrorism.<\/p>\n
The new measures include fingerprinting 6-year-old children and forcing technology companies to give the German authorities front doors to smartphones and backdoors into encrypted messaging apps in order to spy on all communications.<\/p>\n
According to Reuters: <\/p>\n
“Germany is planning a new law giving authorities the right to look at private messages and fingerprint children as young as 6, the interior minister said on Wednesday after the last government gathering before a national election in September.<\/p>\n
\n Ministers from central government and federal states said encrypted messaging services, such as WhatsApp and Signal, allow militants and criminals to evade traditional surveillance.\n <\/p>\n
\n Among the options Germany is considering is ‘source telecom surveillance’, where authorities install software on phones to relay messages before they are encrypted. That is now illegal.\n <\/p>\n
\n Austria is also planning laws to make it easier to monitor encrypted messages as well as building out a linked network of cameras and other equipment to read vehicle licence plates.\u02ee<\/p>\n
It seems each new “terror” attack in Europe results in more laws that destroy individual liberty and benefit the police state. Others are noticing, too.<\/p>\n
\n Reuters mades sure to add that the “proposal encountered strong opposition in Germany, where the memories of spying in the Communist and Nazi run deep.”<\/p>\n
Many attributed Theresa May’s terrible showing in the UK election to her relentless pursuit of cracking down on Internet freedom and privacy.
