The Commissioner for Information of Public Interest Rodoljub Sabic estimated that the Privatization Agency, by once again publishing the list of several tens of thousands of citizens which, in addition to the names, surnames and parent names, contained the citizens' identification numbers (JMBG) has, once again, seriously and massively violated the privacy of people and the right to protection of personal data. The Commissioner judges such an action by the Agency as extremely irresponsible, bearing in mind that the Agency was previously warned that by publishing the said list it would violate not only the provisions of the law, but also the fundamental, generally accepted principles in the area of personal data protection.
The Commissioner for Information of Public Interest Rodoljub Sabic hailed the Agreement between Telekom and the Education Ministry ensuring, on the long term, the free use of Internet in all schools in Serbia and called it "an important step in preparing generations of future citizens to get information, communicate and exercise their freedom of access to information in a modern way, including the control of government by the citizens.
