          1\ bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-34715872 - This is fucking ridiculous. Not just the storage aspect, but the whole fucking thing.

        2\ The fact that when discussing it, May spoke about the "democratic world" is a huge joke. Democracy isn't spying on your citezens.

      3\ Add the fact that there's a bit for preventing surveillance of Parliamentarians' communications, and it's completely against democracy!

    4\ Politicians should be treated as citizens, not as an exception to the laws they're creating. Not like they've not been caught before.

      5\ Also, tracking a domain is still enough to profile someone, even if you're not tracking the actual pages
      1. …in reply to @CodeFoodPixels
        6\ Tracking shouldn't be done of everyone, there's no reason. You're still going to have to filter it down to who you want

          7\ Bonus of tracking everyone, you now have to pay for all that storage! Plus the tech/staff to keep that very sensitive data secure
          1. …in reply to @CodeFoodPixels
            8\ But I suppose even if they don't keep it secure, nobody will be prosecuted, because they'll pardon themselves!

              9\ Democracy is supposed to be by the people, for the people. Those in power have forgotten that.

                10\ They also seem to be ignoring the fact that if someone wants to work around the tracking (by using a foreign VPN for example) it's easy!

                  11\ Criminals and terrorists will still find ways to communicate, away from prying eyes. All this will do is stop the stupid ones
                  1. …in reply to @CodeFoodPixels
                    12\ With the added effect of suppressing regular citizens.

                      13\ Breaking encryption and backdooring systems is also fucking nuts. Guess what, Gov aren't going to be the only ones using those holes
                      1. …in reply to @CodeFoodPixels
                        14\ You give someone a door and they'll walk through it. Criminals will have a much easier time stealing bank details and scraping data

                          15\ Hell this would probably end up helping any terrorists, as now they can get data on their targets WAY easier!

                            16\ This is a great way to drive businesses out of the UK, good job David_Cameron!

                              Ok, I think I'm done. Back to your regularly scheduled programme.
