November 7th, 2006 | by ian | 2006年11月7日|由伊恩|That那个 Canada ranked #2 in defending the privacy of its citizens加拿大排名# 2 ,在维护隐私其公民 is perhaps more of a sad comment on international complacence on privacy issues than a major achievement of which we can be particularly proud.也许是更多的是可悲的评论对国际complacence对隐私问题比的一个重大成就,我们可以特别自豪。 From The Globe and Mail:从环球邮报:
LONDON — Germany and Canada are the best defenders of privacy, and Malaysia and China the worst, an international rights group said in a report released Wednesday.伦敦-德国和加拿大是最好的捍卫者的隐私,及马来西亚和中国最坏的打算,一个国际人权组织在一份报告中说公布的周三。 Britain was rated as an endemic surveillance society, at No. 33, just above Russia and Singapore on a ranking of 37 countries’ privacy protections by London-based Privacy International.英国被评为作为一个特有的监视社会,在第33号,略高于俄罗斯和新加坡,排名37个国家的'隐私权的保护是由总部设在伦敦的国际隐私。 The United States did only slightly better, at No. 30, ranked between Israel and Thailand, with few safeguards and widespread surveillance, the group said.美国只略好,在第30号,排在以色列和泰国,与数保障和广泛的监测,该集团表示。
For instance, I am quite certain that the RCMP and CSIS are intercepting and scanning all Canadian internet traffic.举例来说,我很肯定的是,加拿大皇家骑警和加拿大安全情报局是拦截和扫描所有加拿大网际网路流量。 This is easy and cheap to do.这是很容易和便宜的事。 Who knows what their policies are and while I have no doubt they have good intentions, I’m pretty sure that doesn’t exclude the possibility of being on the road to hell.谁知道什么他们的政策是,虽然我已毫无疑问,他们有良好的意图,我相当肯定,这并不排除这样一种可能性,正在对道路地狱之路。 A good indication that they are already set up to scan all traffic is their ongoing attempts to gain legal support for this via the broad and unpopular “lawful access” bill.一个良好的迹象表明,他们已经成立了扫描所有的交通是他们正在进行的企图获得法律的支持,这通过广泛的和不受欢迎的“合法获取”条例草案。 According to Michael Geist据迈克尔geist they are now attempting to obtain similar powers in a smaller, seemingly innocuous bits of legislation.他们现正试图获得类似的权力,在一个较小的,看似无害的双边投资条约的法例。 Given the track records of our security agencies which include leaving confidential information in a phone booth or in a car’s passenger seat in full view, I can’t say I have much confidence the highly sensitive tasks of internet surveillance will be executed particularly well.鉴于往绩我们的安全机构,其中包括离开的机密资料,在一个电话亭或在汽车内的乘客座位在充分来看,我不能说我有很大的信心,高度敏感的任务,互联网监控,将被处决,以及特别是。
Perhaps they can engage the public on this in an honest and forthright manner before there is a Canadian version of the也许他们可以从事市民就这在一个诚实和坦率的方式之前,有一个加拿大版的 AOL privacy leak AOL的隐私泄漏 . 。 At least I’m sure it will be unintentional in this case, Canadians never intend to do anyone any harm cause we’re nice eh?至少我敢肯定,这将无意在此情况下,加拿大人从来没有打算做任何人造成任何伤害的原因我们正在不错吧? My feedback to them would be to learn from commercial projects and我的反馈给他们将学习和借鉴的商业项目和 surveil the data not the citizens surveil数据,而不是公民 . 。
