EU phone talks stall
Via The Internation Herald Tribune.
European Union nations said Thursday that they had made no progress in negotiations over a bill that would force telecommunications companies to keep records of phone and e-mail traffic as part of the EU's antiterrorist campaign.
Justice Minister Brigitte Zypries of Germany said talks among EU justice and home affairs ministers had made little headway because of concerns over the cost of retaining data and privacy issues that would arise if law enforcement officials across the 25-nation EU got access to phone and e-mail records.
