SAO PAULO - The establishments with rental services of computers for Internet access, such as Internet cafes and lan houses should have a register of their users, with the identification of the terminal used, and the date and time of commencement and termination of use .
These determinations are in the Law 296/008, Senator Gerson Camata (PMDB-ES), approved last Wednesday (14) by the Constitution, Justice and Citizenship of the Senate.
Preventing crime
In justifying the project, Camata reminded that the Internet has been used in the commission of various crimes, and, in many cases, are used to access terminals available to the public. "The vast majority of these establishments does not require identification of their users, which allows the performance of virtually anonymous evildoers," he said.
According to the Agency the Senate, the proposal also requires that the user data are kept for at least three years. However, to protect the privacy of those who make the correct use of the service, the register must be kept secret, to be broken only by court order.
The establishment that facilitate or promote the breach of confidentiality may be fined between R$ 10 thousand and R$ 100 thousand, according to the severity of the conduct. In case of recurrence, the site may have business licenses revoked.
Now the proposal goes to vote in the House of Representatives and if passed without amendment, will go to the presidential approval.
