Big Brother Awards International -- watching the watchmen worldwide
|
Government agencies of all kind and private companies are more and
more intruding and violating everyone's privacy. Enormous amounts
of personal data are being collected, stored and processed - very

Fighting crime by committing one appears to be the future solution
for law enforcement agencies in the information society of the

The juries worldwide consist of lawyers, academics, consultants,
