@edri @laquadrature The HADOPI case basically asks the question whether retention and access to IP addresses associated with civil identity data and the content of a communication (a file shared via P2P) are considered 'serious interferences with privacy rights'
@edri @laquadrature A dozen Member States are here to explain how impossible it would be to prosecute any crime committed online without a complete revamp of the CJEU case law, making the internet a de facto "lawless zone" (words of France)
One takeaway on the fringe of #LaQuadratureduNet is how vitally important the purpose of processing is when assessing necessity & proportionality of a measure. See the different analysis for national security v. combating crime & safeguarding public security. #DataRetention 1/
Another takeaway is how important it is to literally dissect the facts of a processing - what data is processed, how & for what purpose (see the IP address analysis) to establish necessity. Reminds me of our work for the Necessity Toolkit at the EDPS, where this was emphasized 2/
See the final version of the Necessity Toolkit here: edps.europa.eu/sites/edp/file… but maybe also check out the first version, very dear to me 😊 edps.europa.eu/sites/edp/file… 3/END
