This decision reads as a direct contravention of the very EPSCO brief. How does unlimited data mining enforce consumer and social security, even if only in force 9 months. Is that the compromise thinking, let's leave it for now and attack in 9 months under lisbon?

Re: Europe's SWIFT Bow (4.00 / 2)

The compromise thinking is 'let's not get on the bad side of the US' on the one hand and the fact that the US in its infinite kindness sends some info back our way, thus conveniently allowing our security establishments to bypass judicial control.
