Rejected petition Scrap the 'Investigatory Powers Bill'

Stop the UK from becoming a surveillance state and scrap this bill in its entirety.

Surveillance and data interception of any type, for any reason should always require a warrant, issued with good cause, by a judge. Anything less than that is the beginning of the end for a free society.
