FBI wil wijdverspreid toezicht op `onwettige' Webactiviteit

Zaterdag, 26 April, 2008

FBI op Woensdag verzocht de nieuwe wetgeving die federale politie zou toestaan om Internet voor „onwettige activiteit te controleren.“  De suggestie van FBI Directeur Robert Mueller, die tijdens een hoorzitting van het Comité van het Huis van Vertegenwoordigers Gerechtelijke kwam, schijnt voorbij een huidig plan gaan verkeer op federaal-overheidsnetwerken controleren. Mueller scheen om voor te stellen dat de dienst een breed „verzamel“ gezag zou moeten hebben om eveneens toezicht en toezicht op netwerken uit de privé-sector te leiden.

Het toezicht zou al verkeer van Internet, bovengenoemde Mueller moeten omvatten, „of het .mil, .gov, .com is - welk netwerk u over.“ spreekt (Zie het afschrift van de hoorzitting.)

In antwoord op vragen van Rep. ISSA van Darrell, een Republikein van Californië, Mueller zei zijn idee „saldi op één hand, de privacyrechten van het individu die de informatie ontvangen, maar enerzijds, gezien de technologie, de noodzaak om wat verzamelonderzoeksvermogen te hebben dat filters gebruikt die de onwettige activiteit zouden identificeren aangezien het doorkomt en ons de capaciteit geeft om op die onwettige activiteit beslag te leggen waar het door een vernauwingspunt.“ komt

In reactie, zei ISSA: „Kunt u iemand op uw personeel dat aan het werk met leden van Congres bij het proberen van aan ambacht wordt aangewezen die wetgeving?“ hebben

Als om het even welke het verzamel Internet-Controlerend voorstel wet werd, kon het de Vierde waarborg van het Amendement van vrijheid van onredelijke onderzoeken en beslagleggingen betrekken. In het algemeen, hebben de hoven beslist dat het onderzoek van de politiebehoefte rechtvaardigt om de inhoud van mededeling, en het federale Wiretap gecre�ërde Akte te verkrijgen „super waarborg“ wiretap orden die extra stappen en gerechtelijke onoplettendheid vereisen.

Bovendien is het onduidelijk of de „onwettige activiteit“ beperkt zou zijn tot het antwoorden aan de ontkenning-van-dienst aanvallen en botnets, of ook het ontdekken van andere onwettige activiteiten, zoals online het gokken zou omvatten, de distributie van „obscene“ beelden van volwassenen belast met seksuele handelingen, of het verkopen van drugs zonder een vergunning.

Om eerlijk te zijn, werd de bespreking van de Woensdag van het plan aangepast naar cybercrime en het beleid van Bush geclassificeerd „cyberinitiative,“ die omvat een shadowy programma dat als Einstein wordt bekend.

Some politicians have already raised concerns that even Einstein, which is described as dealing only with government networks and not private ones, could infringe upon the privacy rights of American citizens. It’s already in place at 15 federal agencies, but Homeland Security has said it’s still preparing the necessary privacy impact assessments for a proposed $293 million governmentwide Einstein expansion.

Issa, for his part, referred on Wednesday to malicious attacks being undertaken by foreign and domestic hackers who want to “take control of computers” and harvest the national-security secrets and private information of government agencies, private companies, and individual Americans.

“What authorities do you need to monitor, looking for those illegal activities, and then act on those, both defensively and, either yourselves or certainly other agencies, offensively in order to shut down a crime in process?” Issa asked.

In response, Mueller said he would be happy to have his legislative staff work with members of Issa’s committee on creating a bill for a broader-reaching surveillance system.

Issa suggested that perhaps the FBI already has the power to seek voluntary private-sector partners that would like to be “defended” by its agents, provided that they give the FBI their consent. Mueller, however, wasn’t so sure, saying, “that’s going to require some thought.”

    Yes in principle this sounds ok such as cutting cybercrime and tackling those that would exploit children , this i agree is a good thing . Saying that its further down the line that i have concerns about , the article mentioned the fact that this would be targeted at criminals , but we already know that in the U.K. that PEACE CAMPAIGNERS and other PEACEFULL ACTIVISTS can be arrested under the ANTI-TERROISM LAWS so will this new legislation apply to those people too . I am not saying that it will but the oppertunity for governments to use this application that way is there , so will they be able to restrict themselves too REAL CRIME or will they turn their attention to anyone that simply just want too stand up for others HUMAN RIGHTS . I guess only time will tell .
