【昨日回顾】

Yet the material collected in this way can only be accessed under a system of legal and political oversight: the Home Office might like more powers, but the European court of justice ruled in December 2016 that independent judicial authorisation was needed for the “general and indiscriminate retention” of personal data.

然而,只有在法律和政治监督制度下才能以这种方式收集资料:内政部可能想有更多权力,但欧洲法院于2016年12月裁定,对个人信息进行“一般性记录和不加区分地全部记录”都需要独立的司法授权。

【今日长难句】

【结构解析及译文】

All that fuss over a year’s worth of websites, when it turns out that Facebook has been storing all the contact details, the instant messages, and the phone calls of millions of its users for as long as 10 years without anyone outside the firm realising what their apparently innocuous consent implied.

人们发现Facebook在长达10年的时间里一直存储其数百万用户的联系人细节信息、即时信息、电话记录,且该公司之外的任何人都没有意识到,他们所选择的那些看上去没有危险的同意背后暗含着什么;此时,这些在各大网站持续发酵热议达一年之久。

1. 句子主干为主谓结构,即:all that /fuss over /a year’s worth of websites

2. when it turns out that … 为时间状语从句;该句难点在于turn out that …,译为:结果是或人们发现。

3. that Facebook has been storing all the contact details, the instant messages, and the phone calls of millions of its users 为turn out 的宾语从句

4. as long as 10 years 和without anyone outside the firm realising what their apparently innocuous consent implied为状语成分,修饰it turns out that …

【明日预告】

It would not be fair to blame Facebook alone for this. The victims of this policy were only the people who used its Messenger app on Android phones, and Android is a Google product. Apple’s rival phones don’t permit such indiscriminate harvesting of information.
