Guest Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 The point you've missed though is that something as mundane as this shouldn't be a "human right" up for argument and court cases. Using a mobile phone isn’t a human right. To put across a more balanced picture, there are many instances where the HRA has provided much needed assistance to secure justice for ordinary citizens. Some of the most publicised cases are set out on this website http://actfortheact.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Cid Posted January 25, 2018 Author Share Posted January 25, 2018 The big debate on mass surveillance and privacy didn’t begin with Edward Snowden. The debate was already raging in 1999. The cause was a TV show reporting on the UK Ministry of Defence surveillance program. Liberty and a number of others British non governmental organisations did not like at all what they saw. They realised they may have been victims of the reported systematic mass surveillance of all telecommunications across the UK. A case was launched, and – after nine years of fruitless battling in domestic courts – eventually ended up before the European Court of Human Rights. The Strasbourg judges did not need to go into the substance of the case to condemn the UK. They recognized that the mere existence of a vague and ambiguous legal framework regulating surveillance practices was a violation of the right to privacy. In other words, the “virtually unfettered” discretion exercised by the UK government in shaping its surveillance system was condemned as wrong by itself. https://rightsinfo.org/stories/big-brother-is-watching-you/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
