CrazyInWeston Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 When I read your topic title I thought you was going to be on about the fact that now here in the UK ISP's must now keep a log of everything you do. At present ISPs need to see a warrant before logging what customers do online (for up to 12 months) and related logs are also extremely basic. By comparison the new law introduces a system that will require ISPs to store comparatively detailed Internet Connection Records (e.g. the websites / servers you’ve visited) for all their customers and this will also be now accessible without a warrant. On top of that the law also gives the security services new powers to hack computers and other electronic devices (GCHQ had previously been doing this covertly). The law may also make it difficult to offer secure / encrypted end-to-end communication services because companies will face legal pressure to hand over related comms data. But then you talked about shares so I give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
