Britain’s ‘extreme’ surveillance bill becomes law

[Y_Participant 4591]

A really sad day for the UK to have come to this. The beautiful countryside of the Magna Carta rendered by the paintbrush of fear into an shadowy Orwellian landscape.

Britain’s intelligence services have officially been given the most wide-ranging and privacy-invading mass surveillance powers in the world, after the Investigatory Powers Act became law on Tuesday.

It requires internet, phone and communication app companies to store customers’ records for 12 months and allow authorities to access them on demand.

Security agencies and Police will also be able to force companies to decrypt data, effectively placing limits on the use of end-to-end encryption.

The law will provide an international benchmark to justify acceptable surveillance powers by other regimes, and is a necessary cornerstone for any kind of a Police State.

They are doing the same thing in this country, only behind the scene, quietly hoping no one will notice until its too late. This is why I keep my electronic fingerprint as small as possible:

No cell phone, no social media, only the occasional E-mail and MGTOW rant.

There has to be a way to get around some of this. .I guess person to person instead of phone and email. .
That is some extreme s~~~. I’m glad I lived most of my life already. .

If they want to come for you they can. Everybody has some embarassing web browsing history they’d rather not make public. I obey the law and keep my head down as much as possible. I just want a quiet life.

These laws are supposedly created to keep us safe from extremists, but who let the extremists into the country against the will of the indiginous population? The Government of all colours and over decades.

One thing I took away from viewing conspiracy videos was the idea of Problem,Reaction,Solution. Create a problem, wait for the Reaction, then offer the Solution. In this case Mass Surveillance.

Yep, same ol’ trick and it still does work every time, despite the fact of more and more people waking up to it…

I'd rather die a natual death with a clear MGTOW conscience somewhere off the grid than one within "modern" civilisation with a big stress mark on my forehead and a couple of dozen tubes plugged into my body. Back to the plantation..? Me..? Hey, literally: I won't ever fucking kid myself...YZERLMNTSIC

Well, it took a while, but here we are in 1984. I’m starting to think that Orwell and Rand got to ride a time machine and saw the future.

The answer is NO. “I could but I won’t”. Memini murum!

I suspect that this has been happening covertly anyway and they’re now just being more open about snooping on people.

The police had numberplate recognition cameras for years before the public knew about it.

What annoys me about it is the long list of agencies that will get to look at your private data with little re-assurance from the government on what reasons would justify them looking at it in the first place..

Greg has again hit the nail on the head…but the truth is the inverse o his arguement: that is the government deliberately lets criminals/radical et al in FOR THE PURPOSE of causing harm and then the government surveillance state has to ride to the rescue. We’re being played.

Is it worth investing in NordVPN? They do double data encryption.
