PI's submission the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom assembly 2023
Briefly

"While PI recognises the role of law enforcement can play in facilitating the enjoyment of freedom of assembly, states must ensure that any measures to facilitate protest do not undermine the enjoyment of the very right they claim to protect."
"Generalised, and indiscriminate surveillance subjects anyone who wishes to participate in a protest to a variety of serious sanctions, and, ultimately, has a chilling effect on the ability to take collective action safely and freely."
"Any personal data collected incidentally must be deleted without undue delay. This policy would minimize the harm which stems from the databases being built about journalists and human rights defenders who regularly participate in monitoring protests."
