Podľa návrhu zákona majú pokladne identifikovať aj konkrétnych zákazníkov. Je to v rozpore s EÚ právom na ochranu osobných údajov

Finančná správa SR predložila do NRSR novelu zákona, ktorý by mal meniť fungovanie a používanie systému eKasa. Podľa návrhu ma byť s bločkom identifikovaný aj zákazník a jeho nákup. 
 
Novela zákona totiž predpokladá plošné zasielanie pokladničných blokov v reálnom čase do informačných systémov finančnej správy. Štát si od toho sľubuje zefektívnenie výberu daní v kontexte predchádzaniu daňových podvodov. Podľa právnej analýzy EISi, predkladaná Novela nie je v súlade s právom na ochranu osobných údajov, konkrétne so o všeobecným nariadením o ochrane osobných údajov (GDPR). 

EISi intervenes in Flavus v Russia case to support safeguards against over-blocking

On 17 January 2018, European Information Society Institute filed its third-party intervention before the European Court of Human Rights in the OOO Flavus v Russia case and 4 other applications.

The case concerns blocking of the three major political opposition websites and other websites which were blocked directly by the telecoms regulator Roskomnadzor on behalf of Prosecutor General without a court order. The decision of the Grand Chamber will thus have a significant impact on the issue of over-blocking and safeguards against collateral blocking of websites in Europe, and especially in the Russian Federation.
