1/8 Yesterday, @edri member @laquadrature pled at the @EUCourtPress against the French system that puts the internet under #MassSurveillance to fight against the sharing of copyrighted content. The #CJUEHadopi case is important for several #DigitalRights debates at the EU level. 
2/8 #HADOPI was created in 2009 to sanction users suspected of sharing protected content without authorisation. It collects IP addresses shared by rightsholders & requests civil identity data (name, postal & email addresses) from telecom operators to identify & contact suspects.
3/8 @laquadrature’s goal is to challenge access by #HADOPI to this sensitive information, as only serious crimes could justify such access according to @EUCourtPress. Yet, downloading a movie is not a serious crime.
How will key laws such as e-evidence, e-privacy and the terrorist content regulation fare under the new European parliament? A glimpse in today's presentation by the Finnish presidency in the @EP_Justice committee. Presentation by ministers Anna-Maja Henriksson & Maria Ohisalo.
Henriksson said she wants to expand the EU's rule of law toolbox, nodded to Article 7 proceedings against Hungary and Poland. She also said that the Finnish ministers and the Permanent Representative would publish all meetings with lobbyists.
Unfortunately, there were little more than platitudes on #eevidence, little nod to concerns by Germany and others on problematic aspect of Council and Comm. positions. Also, not a single mention of #eprivacy, which the Finns have promised to get a Council position by Year's end.
