Would you rather they didn't stop it?

But your point was that they have stopped it. Without the "snoopers charter". So how can you be arguing that they NEED something that they DON'T have, in order to do things that they are already doing WITHOUT it?

There is already "snooping" and plenty of scope for surveillance. What I don't want is the most oppressive abandonment of freedoms and right to privacy in the entire western world to be voted into UK law. There's a slight difference.

Also;

They have already quite blatantly admitted that the security services ALREADY covertly carry out this sort of monitoring of terror suspects. They, no doubt, use that to stop attacks from happening. So ask yourself WHY the push, now, to make it legitimate? The answer is quite blatantly nothing at all to do with terrorism.

Allowing the government and law enforcement unrestricted access to every aspect of every citizen's private life in the name of "safety", and just because "they probably wont look at mine lol wont be interested"... is mad. It's just completely ****ing insane.
