Criminal investigations "are being frustrated" because no law
currently exists to force Internet providers to keep track of
what their customers are doing, the U.S. Department of Justice
will announce tomorrow.
CNET obtained a copy of the department's position on mandatory
data retention--saying Congress should strike a "more
appropriate balance" between privacy and police concerns--that
will be announced at a House of Representatives hearing
tomorrow.
"Data retention is fundamental to the department's work in
investigating and prosecuting almost every type of crime," Jason
Weinstein, deputy assistant attorney general for the criminal
division, will say, according to his written testimony. "The
problem of investigations being stymied by a lack of data
retention is growing worse." (See related
article.)
