In case of threats and rescue actions: The Federal Council allows more data monitoring

The Federal Council is expanding the measures to monitor internet and telephone data in criminal cases. Contrary to initial belief, the encryption of online services should not be compromised. (symbol image)

The purpose of the adjustment is to allow more accurate positioning of telephone and internet data and continue to guarantee effective law enforcement, as the Federal Council announced on Wednesday. However, in the consultation, digitally savvy and left-wing circles criticized the fact that the amendment of the law on the supervision of postal and telecommunications traffic (Büpf) would lead to an expansion of supervision.

Due to the criticism, the Federal Council is now refraining from forcing providers of services such as WhatsApp, Threema or Signal to remove the encryption of their chats when monitoring is ordered. However, he wants to stick to the introduction of seven new forms of information and monitoring. This is necessary because of new technologies such as 5G.
