Rights and liberties do not protect themselves. The very premise of democracy, rule by the people, requires all of us to do the hard work of establishing and maintaining them. But two years after Edward Snowden\u2019s devastating revelations about sweeping government surveillance, while some encouraging steps toward progress have been made<\/a>, it\u2019s clear that more work is needed.<\/p>\n

We cannot rely solely on political elites to bring about the societal change needed to address the ongoing erosion of our right to privacy. In pitting our security against our privacy, political leaders have successfully contributed to a climate in which giving up privacy is treated as a reasonable concession. It is not. Privacy is a necessary precondition of human dignity.<\/p>\n

We need not behave as subjects, however. Indeed, we have the capacity to be the actors. The arc of history shows that time and time again, social movements have led the way in the fight for rights and liberties. It is therefore our job, now, to fight for this right.<\/p>\n

The Bulgarian-German writer Ilja Trojanow said: a society that gives up on its protection of privacy without a struggle, reveals everything about its inner condition. Privacy is not a partisan issue, but one that affects us all. And so we need to build a stronger, cross-sector, transnational movement to reject the surveillance state. This is already being done\u00a0by actors such as the European Digital Rights Association, EDRi<\/a>;\u00a0La Quadrature du Net<\/a>;\u00a0Code Red<\/a> and many individual activists. Let’s build on their important work.<\/p>\n

One way in which European Alternatives is building on this work is by participating in\u00a0a CryptoParty<\/a>\u00a0at the Berlin based c-base<\/a>, to teach\u00a0citizens\u00a0how to protect themselves online. Prior to that, we will hold two debates<\/a> on\u00a0surveillance, privacy, why we should care (more) and how we can act: with Tactical Tech<\/a>, the Centre for Internet and Human Rights<\/a>, the University of Rome and others.<\/p>\n

\nZwei Jahr nach Snowden bleibt das Recht auf Schutz der Privatsph\u00e4re schwer fassbar<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wir sind einem Irrtum aufgesessen wenn wir uns einbilden, dass es Strukturen und Sicherheiten gibt, die eine Gesellschaft per se demokratisch machen. Der B\u00fcrger kann sich nicht einfach zur\u00fccklehnen, da ein Gewisses Mass an Demokratie gesichert ist. Zwei Jahre nach Snowden\u2019s Enth\u00fcllungen \u00fcber die umfassende \u00dcberwachung der Geheimdienste wird deutlich, dass trotz einiger mutiger Schritte gegen die Einschr\u00e4nkung unserer Freiheit noch weit mehr getan werden muss.<\/p>\n

Der B\u00fcrger, der seine Freiheit nicht wirklich wertsch\u00e4tzt, \u00e4hnelt in seiner Verfasstheit eher einem Untertan. Wir haben aber die Kapazit\u00e4ten Akteure zu sein und zu werden. Wir k\u00f6nnen uns nicht alleinig auf die politischen Eliten st\u00fctzen, um die gesellschaftlichen Ver\u00e4nderungen die den Schutz der Privatsph\u00e4re sicherstellen, herbeizuf\u00fchren. Das Ausspielen von Sicherheit gegen Privatsph\u00e4re hat erfolgreich auf Hinwirken der Politik dazu beigetragen, dass die Aufgabe unserer Privatsph\u00e4re als ein angemessenes Zugest\u00e4ndnis gehandelt wird. Das ist es nicht. Das Recht auf Privatsph\u00e4re ist eine notwendige Vorraussetzung der menschlichen W\u00fcrde.<\/p>\n

Die Geschichte lehrt uns, dass es soziale Bewegungen waren, die sich f\u00fcr den Erhalt und die Erweiterung unserer Rechte und Freiheiten stark gemacht haben und immer wieder die K\u00e4mpfe darum gewonnen haben. Der Schutz der Privatsph\u00e4re ist ein gesamtgesellschaftliches Thema, eines das uns alle etwas anbelangt. Der erfolgreiche Einsatz gegen den \u00dcberwachungsstaat funktioniert nur durch eine eine starke, \u00fcbergreifende, transnationale Bewegung. Einige Akteure wie EDRi (European Digital Rights Association), La Quadrature du Net, Code Red und andere arbeiten daran bereits, wir sollten daran ankn\u00fcpfen.<\/p>\n

Der deutsch-bulgarische Author Ilja Trojanow beschreibt wie es ist, wenn wir kollektiv, dem Irrtum der sich selbst-erf\u00fcllenden Demokratie aufsitzen: Eine Gesellschaft, die das Grundrecht auf Schutz der Privatsph\u00e4re kampflos preisgibt, verr\u00e4t alles \u00fcber ihre innere Verfassung.<\/p>\n

Am Freitag, 19. Juni, wird European Alternatives eine Cryptoparty organisieren, auf der Teilnehmer lernen wie man sich online besser gegen \u00dcberwachung sch\u00fctzen kann. Davor diskutieren zwei Panels die Themen \u00dcberwachung, Privatsph\u00e4re und dar\u00fcber warum wir uns (mehr) darum k\u00fcmmern sollten und was wir tun k\u00f6nnen: mit dabei sind Tactical Tech, Centre for Internet and Human Rights, Reporter ohne Grenzen und die Universit\u00e4t Rom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
