[kictanet] African Union Convention on Confidence and Security on the Cyberspace

[Grace Githaiga]

Listers
Once again please see the draft AU Convention on the confidence and security in  cyber security. http://pages.au.int/sites/default/files/AU%20Cybersecurity%20Convention%20ENGLISH_0.pdf
Is anyone aware of the team drafting this Cyber Security Convention? Have any Kenyan groups been part of the development process? Any info from CCK?
The draft will be opened up for signature and ratification in January 2014. 
The draft justifies unwarranted restrictions on freedom of expression, unlimited intrusion into the privacy of  individuals and corporations. It also criminalises unsolicited electronic communications among other challenges.
Henry Maina of Article 19 and Victor Kapiyo may want to share the legal perspectives on this draft and what it would mean for Kenyans.
