Wiretapping: New high-level police working group to formulate "a joint response to the impending massive impacts of 5G"
A new senior police working group will try to advance the police demand to retain wiretapping abilities with 5G technology. However, the technical architecture of 5G makes this extremely difficult, if not impossible. The German Presidency is seeking formal recognition from the Council's Law Enforcement Working Party for this new body, named the 'European Heads of Lawful Interception Units'. As well as EU and Schengen states, the UK will apparently also be involved.
👀 👉🏼 See: NOTE from: Presidency to: Delegations: Lawful Interception - Strengthening EU cooperation (11517/20, LIMITE, 13 October 2020, pdf): https://www.statewatch.org/media/1407/eu-council-wiretapping-lawful-interception-cooperation-11517-20.pdf
The document notes that the "primary aim" of the European Heads of Lawful Interception Units is:
"to facilitate better cooperation and mutual understanding of the needs, challenges and priorities of lawful interception (LI) units within the member states."
The reasons for this new structure are "the impending massive impacts of 5G", which will make traditional methods of telecommunications interception redundant.

Statewatch | UK: Ministry of Justice secretly developing ‘murder prediction’ system
The #UK Government wants to develop a #MinorityReport-style murder prediction tool
The Ministry of Justice is developing a project that uses data from hundreds of thousands of people, including victims and witnesses of crime to build this tool - research by #Statewatch reveals.
“We are alarmed by reports that the government is developing a programme enabling machines to predict who might become a murderer.
We know that algorithms can get it wrong, that #AI can get it wrong, and that police themselves can get it wrong, even when crimes have already taken place – they must not be allowed to use pervasive technology to target innocent people who have not committed any crime.”
- Rebecca Vincent, Interim Director
Guess note : sounds like #Palantir .. no ? :
