This slanted, misleading title from the police is a perfect example of how important the language we use to describe events is. Like the David Miranda case this had nothing to do with terrorism, but laws put in place ostensibly to fight terrorism were instead used to harass people the security services find troublesome. Just reading the title would give you a different impression. In fact this man was arrested without cause and convicted only of refusing to give up the passwords and data of his devices. This law renders our spies and police above the law and able to intercept the communications of anyone they choose without a warrant.
