SPIR supported the industry joint letter on terrorist content explaining European trade associations concerns about some provisions in the European Commissions's proposal and in the UE Councils's General Approach.

The ePrivacy Industry Letter to Ministers on behalf of the associations EMMA (European Magazine Media Association), ENPA (European Newspaper Publishers’ Association), EPC (European Publishers’ Council), NME (News Media Europe), AIG (Advertising Information Group), AMC (Audience Measurement Coalition), FEDMA (Federation of European Direct and Interactive Marketing), AER (Association of European Radios), EGTA (European Group of Television Advertising), GESTE (Les editeurs de contenus et services en ligne) and SPIR (The Association for Internet Progress).

European associations and companies, share the European Commission's view that privacy, data security and a responsible approach to data handling are a necessary condition for the development of breakthrough technologies such as artificial intelligence, but also a competitive advantage and added value that European companies can offer.

Members of SPIR deeply support the European way of live and European values, ensuring the privacy of internet users. However, the current ePrivacy proposal has generated great uncertainty across all of us, whose effort to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) risks being nullified by an incoherent ePrivacy text.
