Illegal construction of database spotted

According to a researcher from Cambridge University, the corresponding groups of both the government of United Kingdom and the European Union both violated the rights of every individual as they set off in the direction of the information society.

Progress in the technology appears harmful

Words were taken from Ian Dent’s PDF file with the title of “Beyond Broadband: the true cost of Digital Britain” and it was stated here that “iron net is now descending upon Europe”. He believed that both the government and technological companies are joining hands in order to produce the greatest in the kind of IT infrastructures. The two entities believe that possessing this will give them the power to gather the data that they need from the civilians and illegally generate a profile of the whole populace.

Illegitimate should never be tolerated

Dent disagreed with the government’s current activity of adjusting the whole system of the infrastructure and using the information gathered from the enormous records in order to carry out their plan.

Collection of important information from the members of the huge population became successful due to the advancements in technology. But then, the legitimacy of the activity was not even taken into consideration when this was performed.

The researcher also said that EU violated the rights of an individual to privacy when they directed the information that they gathered with a process that security authorities will not notice.

Funds not used in a balanced manner

Dent also added that the European Union used up about £470 billion when this infrastructure was manufactured and enhanced. The system functions to keep an eye on the impact of the populace within the country’s market. It is also used to assign the funds for the public’s use based on the credit score that an individual obtain from the e-system.

He also said that the groups concerned have not used a single cent in order to find out any disadvantages in this innovative way of gathering information. The worst part is they did not even make a move in order to broadcast this new activity and ask for the recognition of their citizens.
