People can become involved in computer hacking for very different reasons. It is not simply a question of resourceful young people exploring the possibilities technology has to offer, or of 'nerds' who enjoy wreaking havoc in other people's work; it is also about critical investigators who are looking for information that is important to many but that is kept secret unfairly. The latter group helps reduce opportunities for environmental scandals, corruption, financial fraud, warmongering and dictatorial acts. In all cases, incidents of computer hacking interfere with the smooth operation of organisations in both the private and public sector, but when these incidents are assessed, what ultimately counts is the positive or negative impact these disruptive activities have. I fully agree with the rapporteur, Mrs Cederschiƶld, that this framework decision and the relevant national implementing measures should not be used to suppress freedom of expression, demonstration and association. Minor disruptions that are viewed as unimportant in the individual Member States need not be made punishable by the EU. The application of Article 12, in which contact points are set up for the mutual exchange of experiences, can also have adverse effects. I therefore support the proposal to postpone this section."@en1
