It was a pleasure to speak on @cpdpconferences.bsky.social about the importance of (end-to-end) encryption and the lessons to be learned from the big flaws in effective judicial supervision in the protection of human rights in respect of #skyecc and #encrochat

Nieuwe informatie uit het Sky-dossier: volgens Frankrijk nam Nederland het initiatief tot de grootste strafrechtelijke (afluister)operatie. Dat zou betekenen dat de Nederlandse rechter de verkregen data alsnog moet toetsen op rechtmatigheid én betrouwbaarheid! #skyecc @huibmodderkolk.bsky.social

"The “Encryption Challenge” Faced by LEAs in Criminal Investigations"
In the recently published ProtectEU Internal Security Strategy, lawful access to encrypted data and communications is presented as one of the key challenges for law enforcement authorities . In the next months, the EC will present a "Technology Roadmap" on encryption to identify and assess "proportionate" solutions.
In this context, the massive police data collection conducted in the ongoing SKY ECC case is illustrative of the fundamental rights implications of encryption workarounds, including on the right to privacy and on the right to a fair trial. An additional important issue is the one of the sanction of procedural irregularities in judicial criminal proceedings. The role of Europol in international data driven investigations should also be clarified.
In our panel, the speakers will take into account the perspective of national jurisdictions in Belgium, the Netherlands, France, Austria, Italy and Germany. They will also discuss the judicial cooperation at stake: How are reacting the european jurisdictions (ECJ/ECHR) and the EU data protection authorities ?
Questions to be answered:
- Which are the fundamental rights implications of encryption workarounds? How to enable LEAs to access encrypted data in a lawful manner?
- Who controls the police data collection during and after data driven investigations? What is the role of Europol?
- Is the national judicial control on illegal police data collection effective within the EU?
- Is the European judicial/administrative control on illegal police data collection effective?

The “core issue” of our Team is described by prof. dr. Bachmaier as duty of any lawyer: despite mutual trust between public authorities, the defence has still the right to check how evidence has been gathered abroad & whether it has been done in compliance with procedural rules #skyecc #encrochat

The importance of the Berlin decision and European law for all cases with PGP/ cryptocommunication is shown by a lot of cross-border attention, for example one of the members of our team explained before etv.me #encrochat #skyecc #anom
