New Zealand is re-writing its laws to protect its intelligence agencies. The bill would allow agencies to collect data from citizens without warrants. The government says it wants to make the law more transparent to the public. But critics say the bill is too broad and doesn’t have the same protections as the U.S., Canada and Australia.

It would also allow the public to file a complaint against the government.”]
