EU Seen Rejecting U.S. Plan to Monitor Internet, Paper Says Brussels, Oct. 8 (Bloomberg) -- A policy paper due to be released today by the European Commission, the European Union's executive agency, is expected to reject a U.S. proposal that would enable law enforcement bodies to monitor Internet communications between businesses and individuals, The Wall Street Journal Europe reported, citing an unnamed commission official. Access by law enforcement isn't rejected in principle, but commission officials doubt the effectiveness and methodology of the "key escrow" system advocated by the U.S., under which users would have to keep copies of the keys used to decode information with "trusted third parties" such as government agencies or companies certified by government. The European Commission document doesn't endorse a specific alternative, but makes clear that the commission doesn't want to shape the market by laying down a specific technological approach, the paper says. In July, U.S. officials balked at a commission request for a new U.S. regulatory body to monitor breaches of privacy on the Internet and to act on consumers' complaints. o~~~ O
