will jetzt eine Verlängerung der freiwilligen 1.0 – ein Eingeständnis des Scheiterns der skandalösen -Machenschaften von Kommissionspräsidentin und Innenkommissarin ‚Big Sister‘ Johansson zur Durchsetzung der autoritären 2.0. Mit ihrer unverbesserlichen Obsession für verhindern die EU-Kommissarinnen wirklich wirksame Schutzmaßnahmen etwa durch sichere Gestaltung von Internetdiensten (Security by Design). Missbrauchsopfer haben besseres verdient!

Die freiwillige ist ein Irrweg: Die freiwillige unserer privaten Kommunikation durch US-Konzerne leistet keinen signifikanten Beitrag zur Rettung missbrauchter Kinder oder Überführung von Missbrauchtätern, sondern kriminalisiert umgekehrt tausende Minderjähriger, überlastet Strafverfolger und öffnet einer willkürlichen Privatjustiz der Internetkonzerne Tür und Tor. Ein Missbrauchsbetroffener und ich klagen dagegen!

🇬🇧 Since 2015, some French police forces have illegally been using tools – and allegedly Remote Biometric Identification too.
Ahead of the final trilogue of 6/12 I say: Let’s ban , don’t legitimise it by way of “exceptions”.

🇩🇪-Skandal: Franz. Polizei soll seit '15 illegal biometrische Verhaltensüberwachung & nutzen. In der letzten -Verhandlungsrunde am 6.12. muss verboten o gestrichen werden, statt sie durch Auflagen zu legitimieren!

🇬🇧Why is Ireland the most vocal defender of in Council whereas its own Parliament's Justice Committee issued a damning opinion about the file?

I join fellow MEPs calling attention to this as the EU Parliament overhauled the approach last week.

Patrick Breyer Digital freedom fighter and Member of European Parliament for the German and the European Pirate Party

Europe’s voice of privacy and the free Internet

About me

I passionately defend human rights in the age of the digital revolution.
I have been active in the civil liberties movement for many years. In court I successfully contested the first German law on data retention and the law on access to subscriber data. I have sued for Internet surfers’ privacy and achieved access to information regarding Court documents in the EU Commission’s possession.

In the European Parliament, as a member of the Greens/European Free Alliance group, I work on issues including indiscriminate messaging and chat control, European Digital Identity, European space for health data (EHDS) and privacy in electronic communications (ePrivacy) – more responsibilities here.

Contact me

My office, ph. +32 228 45664, will answer telephone enquiries for me (e.g. press enquiries).

My priorities for Europe

Protecting human rights in the digital age

PRIVACY

Right to privacy instead of mass surveillance and data retention – because it is nobody’s business, with whom you are in contact and which websites you visit.

CENSORSHIP

Right to the free exchange of information and opinions – so that nobody censors or filters what you are allowed to read and write on the Internet.

COPYRIGHT

Modern, fair copyright law – so that you can no longer be cashed in by lawyers.

FREE KNOWLEDGE

Free software and free knowledge – because projects and ideas get better when everyone can work on them.

FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT

Right to free movement – because reintroducing border controls in Europe is the wrong way to go.

Update for Europe

As the “Robin Hood of politics” we want to give power back to the citizens

DISCLOSE CONTACTS

Disclosure of contacts between lobbyists and politicians in order to curb the influence of business on politics.

PUBLISH DOCUMENTS

Publication of official documents instead of secret agreements (e.g. TTIP).

INVOLVING CITIZENS

Citizen participation and direct democracy instead of backroom politics behind closed doors.

PROTECT WHISTLEBLOWERS

Protection instead of prosecution of whistleblowers.

SECURE THE RULE OF LAW

Rule of law for everyone instead of private arbitration courts for corporations.
