> For those who are not familiar with this process, the Council’s
> Cybercrime Convention Committee (T-CY) has initiated a global process
> to draft a second additional protocol to the Convention—a new text
> which deals with cross-border access to data, including ways to
> improve MLATs according to their Terms of Reference[1]. The work on
> the Second Protocol to the Cybercrime Convention is ongoing, without
> sufficient transparency nor meaningful civil society participation.
>
> Join us on the letter and read more about the second additional
> protocol to the cybercrime convention:
