PST gets mass surveillance: - A step in the direction of a police state, says the leader of the justice committee, Per-Willy Amundsen (Frp) to Bergens Tidende.
In the Storting, the Upper House secures a majority for the proposal that the Ap-Sp government put forward before Christmas, on changes to the Police Register Act.
Høyre believes that PST must be allowed to store, systematize and analyze large amounts of openly available information from the internet.
The law will give the police security service the opportunity to monitor, store and analyze large amounts of openly available information. They can use this to create analyzes and intelligence assessments, even if the simple information in isolation is not necessary for the purpose.
Per-Willy Amundsen is critical of the change in the law, and believes that March 2023 will be the month when the Storting will "abolish the right to privacy".
- It happens without a thorough investigation and without a public debate. The population does not know what is about to happen, he says, according to BT.
He believes that such monitoring must only take place after a concrete assessment and after the courts have assessed the case.
But the government believes that the change in the law is necessary for PST to be able to analyze changes in the threat picture.
The committee's majority (Ap, Høyre, and Sp) indicate that the proposed changes to the law will strengthen PST's opportunities to monitor extremist digital networks.
After a consultation round, the storage period has been reduced from 15 to 5 years, but with the option to extend it to 15 years.
Together with Norway's institutions for human rights (NIM), Tekna, and Advokatforeningen, the Norwegian Data Protection Authority has warned that this could limit freedom of expression, according to NRK.
FRP, SV, and Venstre, in the justice committee, write in their recommendation that they fear that the law will mean a major intrusion into the right to privacy. They believe it will have consequences for freedom of expression, freedom of thought, and freedom of information.
The matter will be up for debate and voting in the Storting next week.

Editor notes.
Totally unacceptable as the majority of Norwegian top police officers are members of the Freemasonry, worldwide infiltrated by the Global Elite/Illuminati/WEF and their plans for a dystopic NWO.
Our most influential Judges are also members of the Freemasonry.
