Brett needs a pat on the back. Thanks for raising awareness of the new Investigatory Powers Bill. Hopefully this gets picked up by the mainstream media.

That is the traditional problem of a boycott and what makes it ineffectual. Moreover, the ineffectuality of boycotts makes people less likely to actually believe in them. Which is exactly what "they" want you to think.

I'm not American, so your politics are largely irrelevant to me, but as an American I would find it probably worth looking at Obama's stance on bulk surveillance over time. Has he flip-flopped? If so, either he was persuaded by ev

Whilst "digital civil disobedience" is all well and good, breaking their rules won't help us break their will. The last bastion of hope is a "union of the consumers", where we collectively punish and break companies

Maybe we should democratically vote for representatives that keep their policies secret until we've voted for them.

No shit. This goes for everyone else apart from the US too. That's why it was kept a secret. If we can prove that these politicians signed these agreements after receiving backhanders, can we declare it null and void?

Do you really believe that we didn't torture or enemies during WWII. History is written by the victors. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_war_crimes_during_Wor... Similarly, we often believe that it was only

If there is gold then it has probably come from a number of sources, including raided banks, the jewellery and gold filings of Jewish prisoners who ended up being gassed. I'm not sure how you'd figure out how to divvy that up fair

The article doesn't make it clear (to me). Where did these emails come from? Were they leaked or hacked?

My favourite part of the US elections is the false premise of voting for either a bullet in the left side of your brain, or as a pleasant alternative, the right hand side.

This is the crux of the problem. We are all forced to watch the world like a film and it is them who are the directors and its director is Michael Bay. Even the directors cut is only part of the picture and even if you are privy to the fact

I'm not sure to be honest. I just thought it was a really cool idea. It felt a bit like the film "I am Legend". All it needs now is a secret zombies and shotgun mode!

What's painfully not funny, is that the vast majority of the British public won't see this as a problem, and won't see any need to do anything about it. There is a reason why all the data and calls go through the BT Tower in
