Snoopers Charter

[jmorgan]

Maybe a national pron day the day the law comes in.

[Alucidnation]

Surely 'people' can just jump on to a pay as you go phone to avoid mobile snooping?

I think we need some browser extensions that periodically send random requests to government websites. Swap them with noise.

Can't be that hard to come up with thousands of URLs like

Those are next on the list. Just wait.

Personally I never knew Mrs May was so interested in my indexed collection of Milf porn but there you go eh?

Jealousy is a bugger.

the most worrying thing about this is the ISP's storing the data and how long it will take for the 1st hack and it to end up in the wrong hands.

got me thinking the sheer amount of data is going to be expensive to store, what happens if everyone runs a scipt that constantly visits different sites, surely someone could build it into a browers exentsion to do it. And for the everyday user who isnt interested they can just be infected with a botnet that does only that. So much data/noise it cannot all be stored..

got my tinfoil hat on.

[V8 Fettler]

Obey the law and there's nothing to worry about. Even local caaancils might have access to the data under RIPA, fantastic.

[jmorgan]

Backing up will be interesting. My backup plan encrypts on the local hard drive before transmitting the information. Can be many gigabits of pics getting backed up. Wonder when they start to take an interest.

[Jasandjules]

I would like to see the press find each and every MP who voted for the amendment to exclude themselves then engage a PI to dig up and publish every ounce of dirt on them and their family they can. I wonder if they'd suddenly decide they don't need this s**t after all then?!!

[jmorgan]

Hansard record that stuff does it not?

Edit.

Hansard from the 15th Nov

Edit 2.

Now I need to understand what all the way this works. The amendments are mentioned from the Lords so that obviously plays in, should have paid more attention when I was in school.

Exactly this.

Blackmail is going to become the new Identity theft.

Signed up to you local swingers club?

Got a secret interest in a bit of kink?

Even if your squeakly clean with no s for the blackmailers; the data will reveal where you bank, who your pensions/investments are with, where you are looking to go on holiday, what car your looking to buy.

It's going to be a gold mine for the criminals.

And a dangerous trove of data for an authoritarian government.

Don't worry about it, just get elected as an MP and you're exempt, or is that Doublethink...?

It's just a bit of legislation to allow them to do what they have already been doing for years
If they want to spy on you they will do so regardless of any legal requiremnt or legislation.
Surely those planes flying in and out of farnborough and spying on the south east's mobile phone network
Will just carry on as per the norm

hilter and the red people spent years trying to take control over the people. nowadays are elected just pass a bill. it is a travesty for the people that died to stop this totalitarianism.

they use the small amount of terrorist acts to justify the actions, it is a shame.

Hitler passed bills too in fairness, although some were much more far reaching in their effect - the enabling act for instance.

I'd imagine this sort of surveillance has been going on for years, regardless of the law, that doesn't make it right though.
