Deeplinks Blog posts about Mandatory Data Retention
Last Thursday, David Kaye, the U.N's newest free speech watchdog, released a groundbreaking report calling upon states to promote strong encryption and anonymity. Kaye assumed the role of Special Rapporteur for Freedom of Expression in August 2014, and this, his first report, will be presented at the 29th regular session of the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva mid-June.
His analysis comes at a key moment. The ability to communicate anonymously and to use encryption is more important than ever and the Rapporteur rightly notes that privacy is a gateway for freedom of opinion and expression, saying:
Este jueves 4 de Junio, el Senado de Paraguay votará sobre el Proyecto de Ley de Retención de Datos de Tráfico, uno de los peores proyectos anti-privacidad del país. Esta iniciativa, denominada popularmente 'Pyrawebs' por la semejanza con el sistema de espionaje basado en los delatores (pyragües en idioma guaraní), implementado por la dictadura militar que dominó Paraguay por 35 años (1954 - 1989), es es una medida desproporcionada que debe ser rechazada rotundamente.

This Thursday, the Paraguayan Senate will vote on a data retention mandate—one of the worst anti-privacy bills we've yet seen in Paraguay. The bill, dubbed Pyrawebs, is a big deal: its data retention mandate is a disproportionate measure that should be roundly rejected. You have 48 hours to mobilize your networks.
Here's how you can participate:
Tras el rechazo unánime en la Cámara de Diputados al proyecto de ley que pretende que compañías de telefonía e internet almacenen durante 12 meses los metadatos de todos los usuarios, la iniciativa volvió a los Senadores, quienes están de acuerdo con la desproporcional e innecesaria figura legal por lo que aceleran su aprobación.
