Here are more paragraphs that are relevant to us. If you look at the 
"balance", privacy could deserve much more weight.

50.	We underline the need to develop effective instruments and efficient 
mechanisms for the prosecution of crimes using technological means, that 
are committed in one jurisdiction but have effects in another. We call 
upon governments, in cooperation with other stakeholders, to continue to 
develop appropriate instruments and mechanisms, including treaties and 
enhanced cooperation, to allow for effective criminal investigation and 
prosecution of crimes committed in cyberspace as well as against networks 
and technological resources. This should address the problem of 
cross-border jurisdiction, regardless of the territory from which the 
crime was committed and/or the location of the technological means used, 
while respecting sovereignty.

51.	We resolve to deal effectively with the significant and growing 
problem posed by spam. We call upon governments, in cooperation with other 
stakeholders, to adopt a multi-pronged approach to counter spam. This 
would entail:
a)	appropriate legislation and enforcement;
b)	development of technical measures;
c)	establishment of multi-stakeholder partnerships;
d)	awareness raising and user education of anti-spam measures;
e)	development of a global and coordinated approach to the problem.

52.	We reaffirm our commitment to the freedom to seek, receive, impart and 
use information for the creation, accumulation and dissemination of 
knowledge. We urge that measures undertaken to ensure Internet stability 
and security, to fight cybercrime and to counter spam do not violate the 
provisions for freedom of expression as contained in the Universal 
Declaration of Human Rights and the WSIS Declaration of Principles.
