20110619 No retention of passenger data

Keine Speicherung von Fluggastdaten - No retention of passenger data

Aktion Freiheit statt Angst e.V. hat bei thepetitionsite eine Petiton gegen die Speicherung von Reisedaten durch die EU eingebracht.

Die Petition lautet:

No retention of passenger data

After 2001 the U.S. had closed bilateral agreements with several states over the sharing of travel data to verify these before the arrival of the travelers on suspicion of terrorism. Since last winter, the EU plans to build their own PNR database too, even with the option required from the UK to expand this unspeakable practice to rail and sea travel.

Neither the U.S. nor the European Commission have been able to make clear that the entire measure is necessary at all. Such an area-wide encroachment on fundamental rights at all may only be made if it is proved that it was a necessary and proportionate measure within a democratic society.

The stored data will be matched against various databases of the EU and its Member States and also will be rasterized "in accordance with pre-determined criteria". Automated rastering bears the risk of wrong decisions and judgments, which has serious consequences for those affected by.

It is to criticize:

The benefits of this measure are doubtful.
It is possible to draw conclusions on the private life of people.
A computer search and decision on data, is prohibited by the Constitutional Court in Germany.
The project is a data retention (Vorratsdatenspeicherung), which is illegal in Germany stated by the Constitutional Court.
The correctness of the data is not detectable.
It therefore will be expected that mistakes will occur.
The basic right to the freedom of movement will be restricted by this measure.

So, please help us to stop this nonsense that will undermine our fundamental democratic society.
