Deeplinks Blog posts about Mandatory Data Retention
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a government, in the wake of a national security crisis—or hostage to the perceived threat of one—will pursue and in many cases enact legislation that is claimed to protect its citizens from danger, actual or otherwise. These security laws often include wide-ranging provisions that do anything but protect their citizens' rights or their safety. We have seen this happen time and time again, from the America's PATRIOT Act to Canada's C-51. The latest wave of statements by politicians after the Paris bombing implies we will see more of the same very soon.
En una carta abierta dirigida a la Comisión de Constitución y Reglamento del Congreso del Perú, que será responsable de la revisión del Decreto Legislativo 1182 firmado por la Presidencia del país latinoamericano, diversas organizaciones internacionales defensoras de los derechos humanos en el mundo digital han expresado su preocupación sobre la flamante normativa.
El DL 1182, que fue bautizado como “Ley Acosadora” o “Ley Stalker” en idioma inglés, obliga a proveedoras de telefonía y servicios de Internet a retener los metadatos de la población que usa teléfono móvil o fijo e Internet por un periodo de tres años, hechos que constituyen una violación a los derechos fundamentales de millones de ciudadanos del Perú.
In an open letter directed to the congress of Peru’s Commission on Constitution and Rules, a coalition of international human rights organizations have expressed their concern about Legislative Decree 1182 (“DL 1182,” “Ley Acosadora,” or “Stalker Law” in English)--a Peruvian bill that allows law enforcement access to mobile phone location data in cases of flagrante delicto without a warrant, and requires telecom companies to retain data for a period of three years thus violating the fundamental rights of millions of Peruvians. The Commission on Constitution and Rules will be responsible for reviewing the Stalker Law which has already been signed by the President of Peru.
On July 27, Peru’s executive branch adopted a legislative decree (DL 1182) that allows warrantless access to Peruvians' location data, in cases of flagrante delicto. The decree has been dubbed "Ley Acosadora," or in English, "the Stalker Law," because of the way it creates a new power for the government to track the movements of vulnerable mobile and Internet users. The law requires telephone operators and Internet service providers to retain, for three years, data of millions of Peruvians who communicate via fixed, mobile, and/or computers. The retained data is accessible by law enforcement agencies with a court order at anytime in the future.
El pasado 27 de Julio, el Poder Ejecutivo del Perú aprobó el Decreto Legislativo 1182 que permite al Estado acceder, en casos de flagrancia, a los datos de tu ubicación sin una orden judicial. Además obliga a las empresas operadoras de telefonía e Internet a retener los datos de millones de peruanos que se comunican a través de teléfonos fijos, móviles y/o computadoras por tres años. Los datos estarían disponibles por el Estado previa orden judicial para un posible uso futuro. La norma fue aprobada sin consulta pública y entraría en vigencia a partir de septiembre según declaraciones del viceministro de Justicia.
