In the death of Gareth Williams (he was the ex GCHQ spy who was found dead, enclosed in a locked bag in his bath) the authorities brought up the fact that he'd visited BDSM porn sites as a way of explaining the unusual circumstances of his death.
This proves that the government is willing to selectively present out of context information from someone's browsing history in court in order to further their agenda. If you believe every employee at all 49 agencies who have access to this data will never misuse it, well, you're more trusting than me.
And I haven't even touched on any of those agencies being the conduit of leaked information, and the ramifications of that. If the NSA can't even keep a lid on confidential information when it's staffed with some of the most experienced and intelligent techs in the world, what hope does the Department for Work and Pensions have?
