eff.org/deeplinks/2023/12/late The EFF has a take on the newest draft of the proposed cybercrime treaty here.

qoto.org/@olives/1114975282280 I wrote about a couple of provisions here.

I'm also concerned about a provision which encourages states to surveil bank accounts. Britain conveniently forced through a bill suddenly (after the new draft dropped) which allows the monitoring of all bank accounts without due process of law. It is currently in the Lords.

Ah, okay, on closer examination, the bank surveillance stuff in the U.K. is more for welfare payments, than something more general (so it might not be that related, although this isn't suggesting that that is a good idea).

Probably still a troublesome precedent though.
