It shouldn't come as a surprise that allowing for a privacy invasion might just result in one's privacy...being invaded.
On Friday,Nude boobs Australian Federal Police (AFP) commissioner Andrew Colvin admitted that an investigator had accessed the call logs of a journalist without getting a warrant first.
The country's Telecommunications (Interception and Access) Act requires authorities to seek a Journalist Information Warrant before accessing records. Colvin told reporters the breach was a result of "human error."
SEE ALSO: Your phone's fingerprint scanner might not be as secure as you thought"It should not have occurred. The AFP takes it very seriously and we take full responsibility for a breach of the Act but I also want to say there was no ill will or malice or bad intent by the officers involved who breached the Act," he said.

The AFP self-reported the breach to the country's Communications Ombudsman on Wednesday, and destroyed all records resulting from the breach. The content of the call was not accessed.
Even though the incident is a "serious matter," the journalist whose data was accessed has yet to be notified. Whether they'll be told or not is pending an investigation, according to Colvin.

Last year, the AFP also admitted it had requested access to the metadata of The Guardianjournalist Paul Farrell. According to the report, AFP officers attempted to try and track down Farrell's confidential sources from a 2014 story on an Australian customs ship going further into Indonesian waters than the government had disclosed.
Despite concerns over hacks and the data being prone to abuse by law enforcement, the phone records and internet metadata of Australians have been recorded since October 2015.
Telecommunications companies are mandated to retain customer's metadata for two years, in the interests of national security.
So you could say this was bound to happen, and there are likely plenty of regular non-journalist folk out there, who've had their metadata accessed by authorities.
It might be time to get that VPN, hey.
