Right to Privacy: Telephone Interception and Access in Australia PROJECT TITLE :Right to Privacy: Telephone Interception and Access in AustraliaABSTRACT:In its first thirty years of operation, the 1979 Australian Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act moved from providing a strict prohibition on telephone interception (wiretapping), to legislating rights of access for law enforcement and revenue protection agencies [5], [6], [12][14], [18]. Currently, Australian legislation permits access to call content through the use of a warrant issued by a member of the Administrative Appeals Tribunal [5]. The legislation also allows bureaucratic authorization for access to a suspect's location information [13]. Here we consider whether the impacts of this regime are appropriate for Australians in terms of financial costs and in term of impositions on privacy rights. Did you like this research project?
