الحكومة ترفض اعطاء داتا الاتصالات لفرع المعلومات الا للارقام المشبوهة

Chou M14 puppets? :)
I personally talked to different authorities in different countries and not one single country (including Canada and Europe) would allow ANYONE to have access to this private data.
True that the US would do it but it's the only country in the world allowing this...

On pourrait peur etre confier toutes les données à une autorité spéciale, comme un juge de confiance. il pourra donner à la police les seules informations utiles, sans que la demande détaillée ne passe par le ministre des télécomunication qui risque semble t il d'allerter les personnes supçonnées. cette autorité peut aussi etre le ministre de l'intérieur ou de la justice.

Mr. Reformist, in other countries, the minister of telcom is not a very probable friend of assassin people.

As a Lebanese-US attorney, I can tell you with certainty that despite the "Patriot Act" which is considered by Western standards as a statute allowing for a blatant breach of privacy, no security agency can tap into your data flow in the manner requested by the ISF. All you can do is subpoena the telecom company and abide by the ensuing court order. In Lebanon, due process was observed (shocking) and the judiciary denied that request in due course. It should have stopped there. The ISF's request is too broad to be supported by probable cause: only suspicious traffic should be investigated, this means tailoring the request to the needs of the ongoing investigation. Unless every single Lebanese is deemed a person of interest, this cannot come to pass. A visiting French judicial committee went further by deeming the previous disclosures of telecommunication data as illegal.

“those who would sacrifice freedom for security deserve neither.” - Benjamin Franklin

during an investigation if a security agency comes up with suspects they have to get a court order to tap them and get them which is totally normal to preserve the liberties of people, they don t have the right to listen to conversations or read messages from any citizen they want!

i don t understand what all this fuss is about!

but i find it strange that the gvt has to get implied in this not the judiciary only!

The Intelligence Bureau doesn't seem to understand anything about Facebook obviously. They want any pretext for covering the fact that they aren't able to conduct a proper investigation.

Facebook access will not give them any clues, but they have suspects, then go to Facebook and ask for that data. The Lebanese telecom doesn't have Facebook passwords because it's all encrypted during communications.

So where is all this data kept?

That picture is scary and is part of the problem. How many ministers we have for a small country? It's mind-blogging how much money is wasted on this overhead.

No matter if some one searches for his essential
thing, so he/she needs to be available that in detail, thus that thing is maintained
over here.
