Juha-Matti Laurio napsal(a):
"German President Horst Koehler signed a legislation to allow the Criminal Investigation Office (BKA) to start online 
preventive espionage, a measure criticized by the opposition and the German press media.

BKA is German police, right? But to the point.. I want to know whether 
they published any information relating to data protection against 
unauthorized access.

I'm interested in it because government organisations tend to allow 
access to more bureaucrats than neccessary. They also leave security to 
third parties, like here in Czech Republic: Czech Ministry of interior 
outsourced IT infrastructure to the Czech Post and Czech Post will be 
privatized in near future. So IT infrastructure for police and secret 
agencies here will be managed by private company. :-)

Anyone?
