The UK government is set to adopt a bill allowing it to monitor all phone and internet connections between citizens. Promoted as vital for home security, it's been compared to the US Patriot act, adopted after 9/11. Civil liberty activist Trevor Timm warns that the law is just a small step away from handing Big Brother full access to private communication.

Don't you just love it.
This has nothing to do with preventing terrorism and all to do with furthering an agenda of complete control of the populace.
The irony is, the cost of implementing and maintaining it will cost billions, whatever mechanisms are used to implement it; it means that ultimately, we the tax payer will be financing this farce.
We will be paying the Government to monitor our every move; and even possibly finance our own demise in the future; should we be seen to dissent.
Do we really believe that "It's about the who, what, where and when" and not the "content"?
Anyone who thinks " I have nothing to hide, so it won't effect me" is living on another planet. We have seen how the Patriot Act goalposts have gradually been widened in the US; it's only a matter of time in the UK too.

In the US, as of Monday, thanks to the Supreme Court, we can now be strip-searched as many times as the police find necessary for even a traffic ticket.
