Reading the reports on the unworkable draft bill it was already laughable. Not sure I have the funnies to fill it out so please feel free to redraft it. </p> <p>The bill appears to be some nutter saying "Here's the answer. We'll just keep a copy of the Interweb for a year. Now go and make it happen." "Now where did I put that unicorn?" </p> Vertically Challenged Giant on "New Communications Data Bill requires all conversations to be remembered" http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=53103#post-152931 Tue, 11 Dec 2012 19:03:56 +0000 Vertically Challenged Giant 152931@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Nice. Expand this (by adding more jokes rather than just more words) and I reckon it'll make FP. </p> Gerontius on "New Communications Data Bill requires all conversations to be remembered" http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=53103#post-152929 Tue, 11 Dec 2012 18:57:32 +0000 Gerontius 152929@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>Lovely angle B-J<br /> A clever approach to yet another idiotic Tory policy.<br /> Full of potential for a full sub.<br /> It makes perfect sense that if you are going to record emails, texts and phone calls then to make it work properly all spoken conversations should be archived too.<br /> May may or may not. </p> dvo4fun on "New Communications Data Bill requires all conversations to be remembered" http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=53103#post-152914 Tue, 11 Dec 2012 18:29:31 +0000 dvo4fun 152914@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>nice </p> beau-jolly on "New Communications Data Bill requires all conversations to be remembered" http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=53103#post-152903 Tue, 11 Dec 2012 16:29:54 +0000 beau-jolly 152903@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>A redrafting of the Communications Data Bill will require everyone in the UK to make a verbatim record of every conversation they have, noting the place and time and cross referencing it to the person or persons they are talking to. The records will have to be folded up neatly and stored in shoe boxes for a minimum of 12 months. A spokesman for the Home Office said that the original bill did not go far enough and could have allowed paedophiles and terrorists to avoid detection by not using the Internet or mobile ‘phones.<br /> Theresa May admitted in a statement that policing the new legislation could be difficult but added that police would get the additional power to beat to death anyone caught whispering furtively. </p>
