This petition was submitted during the 2015-2017 parliament
Rejected petition Reverse the IP Bill (commonly known as the Snooper's Charter) immediately.
The UN privacy chief has called the IP Bill 'worse than scary'. The bill means that:
-12 months of web history cam be stored
-Security services can legally hack into computers, servers, mobile devices and more
-Bulk collection of data can take place.
More details
This is unacceptable.
The UN has warned that this bill 'undermines' the right to privacy - we agree.
It is a privacy breach and should be reversed as soon as possible.
