EU Stasi report for duty. Wow, scary.
'The EU is working to build with the cooperation of its “public-private” telecom partners a sprawling Stasi-like tattle-tale system. EU officialdom is “preparing proposals for ‘semi automated detection’ systems and buttons to allow users to report suspicious activity on social networks and chatrooms to authorities,” according to The Telegraph. “Providers of chat boxes, email services, messaging systems, social networks, retailing sites, voice over internet protocol and web forums must have flagging systems,” a report produced by The Clean IT Project states.'
In addition, a direct police presence will be integrated into social media. “This includes having a profile, joining user groups, sending and receiving messages, on the platform,” the document states.'
