Abolish the Investigatory Powers Bill
The 'Snoopers Charter' is a medium to create a greater level of restriction and mass control over our society. Privacy is a human right, and this law only indicates that our country is going down a path we must refuse to follow.
The UK is now in the same realm as Russia and China - mass surveillance on this level is nothing more than a leap towards becoming a totalitarian state as opposed to being a democracy. This bill only proves how out of touch this government truly is, and it must be opposed and abolished.
