Blog de la Kroitus<p><strong>Viešas laiškas Europarlemantarams dėl Chat Control</strong></p><p>Gerbiamas europarlamentare,</p><p>Rašau Jums, norėdamas išreikšti rimtą susirūpinimą dėl siūlomo „Chat Control“ teisės akto(CSAM Regulation), kuris šiuo metu vėl svarstomas Danijai pirmininkaujant ES.</p><p>Mane neramina šios problemos:</p><ul><li>Siūlomas „Chat Control“ įstatymas yra precedento neturintis žmogaus teisės į privatumą pažeidimas. Masinis privačių susirašinėjimų stebėjimas nesuderinamas su ES pagrindinių teisių chartijos 7-uoju straipsniu. Nejaugi jūs norite, kad ES žmogaus teisių srityje susilygintų su rusija ar Kinija? Nes atvėrus kelią vieniems žmogaus teisių pažeidimams, greitai atsivers kiti, o kelias atgal bus daug sunkesnis, ar net neįmanomas.</li><li>Susirašinėjimų šifravimo (end-to-end encryption) nulaužimas padarytų visus ES piliečius kibernetinių nusikaltėlių bei autoritarinių režimų taikiniais. Kadangi domiuosi kibersaugumu, tai galiu užtikrinti, kad jei bus palikta galimybė tuo naudotis teisėsaugai, ja naudosis ir piktavaliai. Nėra jokios galimybės to išvengti. Stiprus šifravimas yra būtinas mūsų skaitmeniniam saugumui ir ekonominiam konkurencingumui.</li><li>Techniniai ekspertai ir vaikų apsaugos organizacijos atkreipė dėmesį, kad toks kelias veiksmingai neapsaugos vaikų, tačiau sukels masinius privatumo pažeidimus. Taip pat žmonės ieškos nelegalių privataus bendravimo būdų, kad sukels dar daugiau problemų. Vietoje to mums reikia tikslinių, įrodymais pagrįstų sprendimų. Pavyzdžiui – edukuoti vaikus, kaip jiems atpažinti netinkamą elgesį, ir kur kreiptis pagalbos.</li><li>Demokratinės institucijos šį pasiūlymą ne kartą atmetė arba stabdė: Europos Parlamentas balsavo prieš masinį stebėjimą, o Taryba daugiau nei dvejus metus nesugebėjo gauti daugumos pritarimo. Tačiau šis siūlymas, kurio pavydėtų bet kuris autoritarinis režimas, vis grįžta. Kodėl?</li><li>Dirbtiniu intelektu pagrįsta turinio analizė sukuria daugybę klaidingai teigiamų rezultatų, todėl gali būti kriminalizuojamos paprastos šeimos nuotraukos ir pokalbiai. Techninis įgyvendinimas yra iš esmės ydingas ir nepatikimas – jis kiekvieną pilietį paverstų potencialiu nusikaltėliu, bei be reikalo apkrautų teisėsaugos institucijas.</li><li>Šis teisės aktas pakenktų ES skaitmeninei ekonomikai, regionas taptų nepatrauklus technologijų įmonėms ir pakenktų mūsų konkurencingumui. Palyginus su regionais, kurie gina skaitmenines teises ir inovacijas, taptume dar viena diktatūra.</li></ul><p>Raginu Jus:</p><ul><li>Balsuoti prieš bet kokį pasiūlymą, kuris įpareigoja masinį privačių pranešimų stebėjimą.</li><li>Apsaugoti visapusišką šifravimą ir skaitmeninio privatumo teises.</li><li>Remti tikslinius, įrodymais pagrįstus vaikų apsaugos metodus.</li><li>Užtikrinti tinkamą demokratišką šio teisės akto kontrolę.</li></ul><p>Dabartinis pasiūlymas neapsaugotų vaikų bei jų teisių ir sukurtų pavojingą skaitmeninio stebėjimo precedentą ES. Pradžioje tai gali būti potencialių nusikaltėlių ieškojimas, bet greitai pavirstų įrankiu skirtu susidoroti su žurnalistais, politiniais oponentais, bet kuriais kitais „nepatogiais“ piliečiais. Ir net Jūs nebūtumėte apsaugoti nuo to. Nes nors išimtis Jums ir būtų taikoma, bet pasibaigus kadencijai galite atsidurti kitoje barikadų pusėje.</p><p>Dėkoju už dėmesį, ir tikiuosi, kad atkreipsite dėmesį į šią problemą. Bet jei vis tik norite įvesti visuotinį stebėjimą, nedarykite išimčių niekam – net sau.</p><p>Pagarbiai,<br>Vytautas Butėnas</p><p>Adresatai, kuriems reiktų siųsti:</p><p>vytenispovilas.andriukaitis@europarl.europa.eu, petras.austrevicius@europarl.europa.eu, vilija.blinkeviciute@europarl.europa.eu, petras.grazulis@europarl.europa.eu, rasa.jukneviciene@europarl.europa.eu, liudas.mazylis@europarl.europa.eu, paulius.saudargas@europarl.europa.eu, virginijus.sinkevicius@europarl.europa.eu, waldemar.tomaszewski@europarl.europa.eu, aurelijus.veryga@europarl.europa.eu, dainius.zalimas@europarl.europa.eu</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://kroitus.com/tag/cenzura/" target="_blank">#cenzūra</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://kroitus.com/tag/chat-control/" target="_blank">#chatControl</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://kroitus.com/tag/europos-parlamanetas/" target="_blank">#EuroposParlamanetas</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://kroitus.com/tag/sekimas/" target="_blank">#sekimas</a></p>
McWabbit 🍋🌻🍉<p>Dear <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> 🇪🇺 citizens: Renewed efforts are made to re-introduce an even more stringent <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/ChatControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatControl</span></a> to spy on our online lives. All in the name of safety. But we all know it is about control. No matter if your data is securely saved, it will be used by whoever owns it.<br> <br>A regime change like in some former democracies (e.g. USA), a data leak through a hack or human error, or even an opinion on basic human rights (UK,DE,NL), are all it takes to suddenly make the lives of you and yours miserable or put it in danger.</p><p>Sign petitions, contact your <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/MEPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MEPs</span></a>. But the most passive way to participate in activism that is still effective, is to please vote for <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/progressive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>progressive</span></a> parties who are opposed to Chat Control and have a decent understanding of <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IT</span></a> (security) and the digital services. </p><p>Avoid <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/conservatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>conservatives</span></a> and any party that has moved up to the right in the political spectrum. <br>They moved, because they are infiltrated, indoctrinated and straight up bought by the same corporations and organizations who are supposed to be kept in check in the European market.<br>These parties also either have f-all knowledge of IT (security) and should not be the ones deciding policies on it. Or in rare cases, actually possesses the knowledge, and use it to introduce policies with malicious intent.</p>
