Why have MOST European countries developed specific legislation that permits police and security services to monitor communications traffic for specific purposes, such as the detection of crime?
Option C is the funniest one - can you imagine the police just randomly intercepting everyone's calls and messages before? What a wild west that must have been!
I'm going with A. The right to privacy is a fundamental human right, so any interference by the authorities would need to be explicitly allowed by new legislation.
C) Police could previously intercept without lawful authority any communications in the course of transmission through a public post or telecoms system.
Hmm, D seems plausible. If the 1950 Human Rights Convention made surveillance illegal, then new laws would be required to permit it for legitimate purposes like crime detection.
I think B is the correct answer. The GDPR introduced new data protection rules, so authorities would need updated legislation to ensure their surveillance activities are legally compliant.
C) Police could previously intercept without lawful authority any communications in the course of transmission through a public post or telecoms system.
Option C seems logical. If the police could intercept communications without any legal authority, then new laws would be needed to regulate this and ensure proper oversight.
