Corporate lobbyists are trying to Hi-jack our democracy yet again!

The EU's data protection regulations are working their way through the various EU Committees at the moment and the corporate lobbyists of major US multinationals and EU Banks have been successfully watering down the language of these texts. And According to Privacy International in many cases the ammendments tabled by MEPs were taken verbatim from the lobbyists' recommendations.
