http://www.wired.co.uk/article/ip-bill-law-details-passed Surprised there hasn't been talk of this on here Seems like we're all believed to be inherently guilty of something so it's ok to spy on us without cause
Yeah, it's not good. I think I'll start taking some steps to hide my tracks a little, I already use a VPN now and then, might just turn it on a bit more.
You're fucked then, Brewsters...! Even if they ever did tell the truth you'd insist it was lies behind some sort of conspiracy.
Haha, you're probably right about the first part. Did you follow the farce that was supposedly Thomas Mair's trial....absolute joke...might aswell just rip up the legal procedures system.
You're very close...they only showed a CGI of 'her body' at the scene in case the jury were too upset by a photo. Unbelievable.
The bill has become law today. Amongst other things, it compels internet providers to keep 12 months of records of web browing history going forward. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2...l-becomes-law-extending-uk-state-surveillance So if you've been doing anything "naughty" in the past, best stop now
Draconian law. I get the impression that few in government understand how the internet works. I'm certain that if they want to watch you they already can - but this mass data collection is scary The value of that sort of data must be enormous. Creates some dangerous incentives. What happens when hackers get their hands on it - or what happens when we elect a demagogue who decides to check our political beliefs to suppress their opponents?
So now they can do it legally as opposed to the years they’ve been doing so illegally having the power isn’t the same as the ability, Does anyone think they’ll be able to recruit the right people with the a government salary? Mass data collection means it takes them even longer to wade through it? It will cause as much inconvenience to the hardcore fanatics ,crooks etc as a bobby on a bike
