[kictanet] Cybercrime Bill 2016

[Douglas Gichuki]

Listers,

The bill is an incredible improvement from the previous attempt.

It does well to touch on trans boundary requests for data, a particular
sticking point for the municipal competencies of law enforcement agencies.
However, it leaves us still with the usual tool of Mutual legal assistance
Treaties which have been condemned elsewhere for inefficiency. However, it
is quite likely that less formal channels of cooperation might be more
effective. May this be the place to start work on an inter governmental
investigation agency?

Further, we are lacking a statutory framework for data protection/privacy
protection (the bill on data protection only deals with public sector
data). It is entirely unclear what procedures are to be followed by cloud
providers in cooperating with law enforcement agencies that are holding
third party data on private networks...!

Finally, will the traditional tools of search and seizure work for digital
data that is volatile, easily shifted, and with cloud computing dis
aggregated in non discrete bits across multiple environments and
jurisdictions
