The Investigatory Powers Bill its time to take a closer look

The Draft Investigatory Powers Bill was published last November amid much speculation about its implications for privacy. Following a period of consultation, review, and much further work, the Bill itself is now going through the UK Parliament. The Bill now before Parliament isnt easy to get to grips with. The best defence against a British Edward Snowden is to have nothing to hide, except what you have to hide for operational reasons. But the Operational Cases now published are very enlightening. In particular, the one for Retention of Interconnection Records makes a good case for why the proposed collection of metadata would be valuable.”]
