A case of mobile photography technology meets the European Data Directive?

The text, as highlighted by the folks at Poynter, is here:

With some help from Babelfish, one relevant graf seems to translate thusly:

Anyone who has a mobile telephone is in a position to send such messages and easily and immediately place in circulation collections of images of private and public places that can reduce the sphere of personal privacy and endanger human dignity.

Anyone have a better, complete translation?
