Private online communications will be opened-up by the Government‘s „Snooper‘s Charter“ – or the Investigatory Powers Bill, to give the bill its full title – which requires internet service providers, phone companies and technology firms like Google, Apple, Facebook and WhatsApp keep a record of all of your activity.

This troubling database of information (which will include all your Google searches, your Facebook conversations, WhatsApp group messages and SnapChat videos) will be made available to the UK police and Government whenever they require.
