Wouldn’t this breach multiple EU privacy laws?
This is what I’m wondering.

This will definitely not be misused by anyone in the government. How on the earth did such blatantly dystopian law get passed?
Macron is a NATO puppet.
Yes let’s just say buzzwords without context or reason, makes perfect sense.
It’s almost like Macron wants to be decapitated.
At least it’s happening out in the open? Other states do this without parlimentary or congressional approval.
Interestingly enough I went to a lecture by a Chinese lawmaker yesterday who said the exact same thing. When it’s codified in law, you know what they can and can’t do, and what they can and can’t use in court against you. When governments just do it covertly and subvert due process, your right to privacy suffers a lot more. She didn’t have to point out what Snowden uncovered about the NSA for everyone to know what she was referring to.
A little confused. Regardless of whats legal we know what they ‘can’ do, just not whether its legal or not. What we lose by legalising it is precisely that it can be used in court as legitimate evidence.
Currently in the US everyone knows they have far less privacy from the government, or from corporations for that matter, but ill gotten info cant easily be uses in court.
IMO the really scary thing is that now the government is just buying info from data brokers where the users technically consented in some app’s TOS then using that. Its legally cleaner, and honestly probably better than info they could’ve gotten from from shadier methods.
I am Indian. Even our douche bag of politicians will think twice before passing such legislation. Of course they will spy illegally on us but they won’t pass such obvious fascist legislation.
LIberté,Egalité,Fraternité.Do they like, want the protests to continue on our something? They can’t be that stupid.
…hold my sancerre!
– Emmanuel Macron, probably
The protests are for police brutality against Minorities. Apparently the shot 17 years old kid was repeatedly hit with back of the gun which made him moves his leg away from the breaks and since it’s an automatic the car started moving forward…the rest is history.
Privacy and anonymity is illusion.
Fancy French purses are about to take a new direction! Styles range from Étouffé (muffled) to Le Faraday (electromagnetic shielding).
The Patriot Act took care of that for us in the US!
A Google search for “France phone camera” only gives this posted link and dailymail.co.uk article, both of which are not really trustworthy sources, IMO.
So I’m gonna go with “this is very possibly fake news”.
The US has exported it’s police brutality and police state to France. They even have the similar right wing news apperatice to convince the populace it’s all good. Making Uncle Sam proud 🇺🇸🇫🇷🍟🥖
Not every bad thing people do is the fault of the US.
The French can be proper assholes. Look up the history of Haiti and which European colonies purchased the most African slaves.
Then ask. Where did all they go?
France has been burning itself to the ground longer than the US has even been a thing.
Is this a legitimate source of news?
It’s based on a syndicated news release from Agence France Presse. Here’s a direct transcription of the article from AFP: https://www.barrons.com/news/france-set-to-allow-police-to-spy-through-phones-b21f1f21
I guess NATO stopped pretending they care about free speech and democracy?
