"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5011219\" data-originallang=\"en\">I haven't seen cases of this nature, but I'll say this. The essence of what the law currently allows is to collect a lot of information in the name of border safety. The possibility of criminals, hackers, and so on is a relevant consideration. I don't want to exaggerate the nature of the problem, but the more information the government collects, obviously, the more it's at risk of being collected and hacked by people with criminal intent. That, I think, is another reason that government should be careful not to collect information beyond what is necessary, and even if it is necessary, not to retain it beyond the period necessary to keep it. The government is obviously a repository of a lot of very interesting information that is of interest to people with criminal intent.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5011219\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je n'ai pas \u00e9t\u00e9 t\u00e9moin de cas de cette nature, mais je vais vous dire ceci. Ce que la loi autorise essentiellement \u00e0 l'heure actuelle, c'est la collecte de donn\u00e9es dans l'int\u00e9r\u00eat de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 \u00e0 la fronti\u00e8re. Les criminels et les pirates potentiels constituent un facteur pertinent \u00e0 consid\u00e9rer. Je ne veux pas exag\u00e9rer la nature du probl\u00e8me, mais plus le gouvernement collige des renseignements, plus le risque de piratage \u00e0 des fins criminelles augmente, de toute \u00e9vidence. Je pense que c'est une autre raison pour laquelle le gouvernement devrait faire attention de ne pas recueillir des renseignements au-del\u00e0 de ce qui est n\u00e9cessaire, et m\u00eame si c'est n\u00e9cessaire, il ne devrait pas les conserver au-del\u00e0 de la dur\u00e9e requise. Le gouvernement est \u00e9videmment un d\u00e9positaire de grandes quantit\u00e9s de renseignements tr\u00e8s int\u00e9ressants pour des personnes qui nourrissent des intentions criminelles.</p>"
