Can we have the title changed to reflect the one in the article? The current one feels like it means that the UN is saying we need a privacy watchdog.
Good point - I clicked because it sounded a bit like wow...
Thanks, updated.
US: We will only agree is it's neutered.

Edit: I shouldn't have made such a short comment, and deserved the downvote, but I think it's true. The US is ripping privacy to shreds and is one of the most powerful members of the UN, do you really think that a watchdog will change anything? It's still a good idea, just for the message it would send, but lets not put our hopes in some supranational entity when we need to be fixing our own shit here under our own rule of law.

I am having a hard time thinking of anything more useless.
How are "Watchdogs" working out for humanity so far?
I can't say I'd find this remotely useful.
