The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) have, with partners, made a series of 20 recommendations to preserve the Second Additional Protocol to the Budapest Cybercrime Convention’s objective, as “the current Protocol’s text threatens privacy rights in Latin America, a region with deeper challenges for fulfilling human rights safeguards and the rule of law compared to many European countries”.

With panelists from EFF, Latin America and experts in Police Surveillance, this panel will look at why the EFF has made these recommendations and what will happen if no changes are made to this protocol across the region?
