30/09/2024, 15:37 Open Net Welcomes the Constitutional Court’s nonconformity decision on warrantless subscriber data access but Anonymous Free Speech … Submission by Article 19 and Privacy International, the 2017 Third-Party Intervention Submission by David Kaye, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression, and a statement of the United Nations Special Rapporteur Joseph Cannataci on the right to privacy, on the conclusion of his official visit to the Republic of Korea in 2019, each of which called out human rights violations of the provision of subscriber identifying information. Just as the current Protection of Communications Secrets Act requires the Court’s approval for the acquisition of communications confirmation, a similar procedure must be established for the provision of subscriber identifying information. Simply treating subscriber identifying information lightly compared to the content of communications or other metadata is equal to denying the freedom of anonymous communication. Open Net demands that the National Assembly, tasked with legislative amendment, define adequate notification procedure that allow proper evaluation of the access , and take a step further by drawing up legislation that meets the fundamental principles of the warrant requirement and international human rights standards.
