I found a mention of the situation here: http://www.hri.org/news/greek/ana/2001/01-03-03.ana.html An Athens court on Friday reserved judgment on requests for two restraining orders made by Margaret Papandreou, former wife of the late Prime Minister Andreas Papandreou, against journalist and Communist Party of Greece (KKE) Deputy Liana Kanelli, requesting that the defendant be forbidden to publish letters and photographs concerning her family in her magazine Nemesis. Margaret Papandreou also requests the ordering of the journalist to return all relevant material she has in her possession. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Margaret Papandreou: theft of emails turned into book Date: Thu, 29 Dec 2005 04:41:13 -0500 From: stefanos pantagis <stefanospan@private> To: declan <declan@private> Declan, Mrs Margaret Papandreou, who was married to former Greek Prime Minister, Andreas Papandreou, had a series of personal emails stolen from her computer, with the emails turned into book form but another current member of the Greek Parliament, and still practicing journalist, Liana Kanelli. Mrs Kanelli published the emails, stating that the emails that Mrs Papandreou sent to her son, also a member of the Greek Parliament, and hence a public figure, should be part of the public record. How the emails where obtained brings up a critical question about the Greek constitution, rules on electronic privacy in the EU, and surveillance of ones email by not only a government body, but now by journalist and the media. The emails where given to Mrs Kanelli by "hackers". I have posted Mrs Papandreou's open letter on the matter on my blog, and I think this is something the Politech audience should take a look at. It is difficult to find the article on line, but I will send you an email with the word document as Mrs Papandreou sent to me so that the article can be verified, ect. happy new year: http://stefanospantagis.net/journal/archives/2005/12/is_nothing_sacr.html Stefanos Pantagis, MD _______________________________________________ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/)
