Less security please: II

Well, the UK Government lumbers on, taking the very ease with which social media has come to prominence as a licence to rack up the surveillance powers it gives to the authorities on our behalf. NO2ID’s press release reports that the proposals, announced today and weighing in at a bargain recession-beating price of £12 billion, will include ‘probes’ in all datacentres allowing officials to sample whatever they choose. Slow down Jacqui!
