Rejected petition Repeal the Investigatory Powers Bill. A breach of human-rights.

The bill will force internet companies to store their users' browsing data for a year, and will allow the government to force phone makers to hack into people's handsets.

This is totally a beach of human rights and is the most extreme surveillance law ever passed.
