UK surveillance already access our emails and mobile phones using keyword scanners. This covert surveillance has been going on for many years by M15 and lets remember that M15 remit is the UK and not the rest of the globe.
Will this new surveillance law enable government bodies to store up to 12 months of everyone's personal data? Is this just a way of mass harvesting every phone conversation, text message and email across the land?
In our present time, intrusive techniques such as eavesdropping can or should only be used on those who are seen to pose genuine threat and not for gathering intelligence on the general public or snooping on trade unions as has happened before.
There have been various MI5 security leeks over the years regarding breached snooping but when M15 break the law they are impenetrable and appear to answer to nobody.
