@commentisfree @brianpaddick Which is why they're only collecting the data of those suspected of criminal behaviour. Oh wait...
@JoshLRussell @commentisfree Not using this legislation. Snowden is a different issue.
@brianpaddick @commentisfree 1/ I fail to see how. The bill enforces the retention of data, whilst there is still a serious question mark
@brianpaddick @commentisfree 2/ over GCHQ's ability to intercept data. You must realise how that looks.
@JoshLRussell @commentisfree Share your concerns but GCHQ probably don't need data to be retained by this bill to get their hands on it!
@brianpaddick @commentisfree Does this mean you'll be campaigning to reduce the indiscriminate data collection of GCHQ?
@brianpaddick @commentisfree Isn't the collection of information relating to terrorism GCHQ's domain? So why #DRIP if GCHQ doesn't need it?
@JoshLRussell @commentisfree I'm guessing about GCHQ capability. Police and other law enforcement agencies need this data to be retained.
