Councils on the wire

I was shocked to see a recent article by the Daily Mail which they claim finds that councils are abusing anti-terrorist powers to check up on average citizens emails and phone calls. It’s like 1984 all over. At the end of the summer I plan to move all my email correspondence to encrypted formats. I’ll post between now and then with advice for all others who would like to keep a little bit of privacy in their lives before we are all routinely monitored.
