Finland, at least for now, doesn't allow mass collecting of data. There is no foreign intelligence either (except of course military sigint along the border). Finland isn't part of any military alliances, so there is no sharing of intelligence with allies. These might of course change in the future. Since the Snowden leaks, there has been lobbying to give the military and Supo ("protection police", roughly the Finnish NSA, but police rather than civilian) the right to spy abroad and mass collect data. The Ministry of Transport and Communications is opposing the mass collecting part, but everyone else seems to be supporting it. Some of the media and politicians are constantly trying to convince people that we have to join NATO ("The European Defensive Alliance" as they like to brand it), but I doubt that is going to happen any time soon. Of course most data traveling to/from Finland passes through Sweden, which shamelessly spies on it. |
