Petition Repeal the new Surveillance laws (Investigatory Powers Act)
A bill allowing UK intelligence agencies and police unprecedented levels of power regarding the surveillance of UK citizens has recently passed and is awaiting royal assent, making it law.
This means it's not too late!
This is an absolute disgrace to both privacy and freedom and needs to stop!
More details
With this bill, they will be able to hack, read and store any information from any citizen's computer or phone, without even the requirement of proof that the citizen is up to no good.
This essentially entitles them to free reign of your files, whether you're a law-abiding citizen or not!
This is sickening. It has only made it this far due to it being snuck past the population in relative secrecy. It isn't too late. We can fix this before the UK is turned into a dystopian surveillance state.
