02/09/2008 Telecoms Package Plenary Speeches
"My group doesn't agree with the attempt to regulate copyright in this report. Neither the french model, to address the french Presidency of the European Council, nor the 'Three Strikes'-model will be supported by my group. Far from it! To consider this we are further on feared for the copyright as well as for the privacy protection in the Internet." A last comment about the report of Alvaro: Mr. Alvaro, once again you talked about data protection in a dedicated way but at the moment I can't see that you draw a continuous line, for example for the protection of the IP-addresses. The experiences with the Telekom-affair and the dealing with addresses via call centres are showing that IP-addresses need a highly protection. I hope we come to an agreement about that in the next two weeks.
