They are already doing this at Finland, though police has limited access to such information and they need court order to get it.
No, not really. They're using triangulation to get the position of a specific cellphone. Not the same thing if you read the article. And of course they can get permission to listen in on the calls with all the necessary court orders of course. But these are things that can and are being done anywhere where a cellphone-network exists.
This is, as I see It, just another step for the EU to become like the "big boys", the US..
IMHO the EU was founded just so that the politicians here in Europe wanted to play in the big boy's sandbox. The EU is a big load of politicians getting paid waay too much, and the member-countries pay lots of money every year to keep it alive.. Sometimes it seems like Finland is the only country that actually pays these member-fees and the rest just don't give a damn..
If this continues I'll buy a small island and make it a soverign state;)

"or features for the deaf"
Ah, yes, let us create a mp3 player for the deaf!
Sorry, but I just don't see what problems the deaf have with using a computer..
