Background - "Fading Privacy"
Without major changes in the legal setting - due to the technical progress of interconnecting isolated data bases and the online-behaviour in particular with smart-phones (incl. geolocating services/GPS), the privacy of normal citizen has dramtically decreased and with the arrival of the internet of things (IoT) is likely to continue to further decrease for the foreseeable future.
But Privacy is not entirely lost. The community should show a path to regain it !
Steps
Possible steps to regain your privacy
- E2E Reach authorities in an end-to-end encrypted way
- create tools to use the authority certificates also for non-mail encryption (e.g. file encryption to X.509 certificates as free open source tool)
And to counter-balance the imminent lowering of privacy rights (e.g. longer header retention etc. in BÜPF/VÜPF) 3. Add personal certificates / key pairs to goverment ID cards
