Comment on Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder, Europol warns
Badeendje@lemmy.world 4 months agoI read this the other day… the issue they face is on the warrant side, cross border investigations have a 120 day lead time. So instead of actually integrating police and making sure time sensitive investigations get treated as such… They whine about PET.
EuroPol seems to be something like the FBI… who operate across all US states. But in the EU the countries are still very separate and require such ridiculous things as proof and due process. And that’s fine… It just needs to be sped up.

Europol is merely a clearing house, standards process and coordinating agency for how national police forces work together across the EU states. It has very, very little power. Unfortunately.

based on this article, i would say it’s fortunate that they have very little power

You’re assuming the national services are better, I suppose. In my experience it’s been the EU who has struck a better balance between privacy and investigative powers than the crap they’re pushing for nationally.
