| Anyone can read your emails and listen to your phone calls |

The Government is set to announce a frightening
and controversial new scheme that plans to hold data records of every
phone call, email and all online usage of every single resident of the
UK. Essentially this scheme will treat everyone like a suspect. Planned
to be announced in the Queen's Speech
this autumn, the database will be made available to the security and
law enforcement agencies, local councils, and "other public bodies".
So let’s recap, not only is your every move being watched by a CCTV camera,
not only is the government seeking to lock you away for 42 days based
merely on suspicion, but now a truly shocking open war is being waged
upon the privacy and civil liberty of every citizen of our nation. Can
you imagine a local council employee sifting through your emails,
reading your private text messages, checking what websites you've been
accessing?
Even more disturbing is the opportunity which arises for criminals to attack such databases for the purposes of identity theft or even blackmail! The Government's track record of keeping our data safe leaves much to be desired. How will people react to this "Big Brother-esque" innovation? Will they take to the streets and protest, will there be absolute outrage? Or will the so called 'threat of terrorism' justify such draconian measures? What ever happened to the notion of innocent until proven guilty? Readers have left 23 comments.
they better watch out on this on:

Then, the people will do the same to the government, police etc and bug their telephones. So if they want to play that game, go ahead. I'll do the same with MPs, police, and any city councillors, meetings then we'll see how they like it.
They can't use that card of you shouldn't when they start doing it too. I think this is something that cannot be ignored and not enough to debate on it but fight against it. It's serious and invades privacy and companies can use such information for government to make money as well taken away our freedom.

Their is only going to be a database of 2 million, hence for the muslim population. It seems their is going to be revival of old european mindsets, like that of the Nazi era. Britain is heading towards becoming a facist state. British Muslim civil liberty organisations must engage in relationship building with American civil liberty organisations, to develop strategies to face the new challenges of this Nazi state. We need freedom like American freedom

So when you arrive late to work, remember it was because of Muslims. It doesn't matter how, it just is. Great idea!

Can't you see that the government is using Muslims as an excuse to erode civil liberties.

Joe you are like many others - I have always thought that the hill billies of America were only confined to the states but I have been proven wrong - I think your ancestors actually managed to cross the atlantic and migrate to the UK.
So don't be shy sit on your porch and play a tune on your banjo.

Islamic Torch! and Muslims of good will
shine you torch on the text and teaching of Islam and read them. If you find a way to persuade me that Islam dosnt teach warfare and hatred of non muslims I will be your 1st convert. Other wise im sure you are a good fellow but I will hold the idea that you have been duped into Islam and dont know it, or that you are a liar.

joe since 2003 hundreds of thousands of acts of terrorism have been carried out by christian terrorists resulting in millions killed or maimed-raped-sodomised-tortured and made refugees, iraq a nation which did not attack america but to date 3 million iraqis have been killed by american and western christiaa/atheist terrorists.
since 2001 in afghan hundreds of thousands have died in terorr attacks by christian terrorists in the name of christianty and democracy. in the last century hundreds of millions slaughtered by christian/atheists terrorists the biggest being the slaughter of 6 million jews ,3 million dead in vietnam-3 million dead in korea-3 million dead in afghan-3 millon dead in algeria the list is endless. Its better for you christian/atheists not to start a slanging match,the biggest mass murder hitler was a atheist racist mater race murderer followed by another atheist communist mass murderer stalin. Every nation fightign back is due to occuaption fo muslim lands by kaffirs or their lackeys,no occupation no resistance. All the above christian atheists violence in the name of christianity and greed as proven by history and facts, but to date i have not heard any known muslim fighting to end occupation say he is killing people in the name of islam, he fights to end oppression and occupation.

The Koran text comes in different languages - but the true spirit is to stand amongst hundreds during the prayer and listen to the Koran as it is recited - and if you (Joe) feel a tinkling inside an a feel good factor - then you in your heart and mind will know that the word of God means everything and only then will you see how others have been trying to create a negative image.

ISLAMIC TORCH, I GET THE SAME IF I HEAR A SONG FROM LONG AGO THAT REMINDS ME OF A PERIOD OF TIME ID FORGOT, THE DIFFERENCE IS IT NOT WRAPPED UP IN A BELIEF SYSTEM THAT MANDATES WARFARE AGAINST A THEM AND US MIND SET.
IF MUSLIMS ARE GOING TO USE PROBLEMS IN THE WORLD THAT HAPPENS TO INVOLVE MUSLIMS TO JUSTIFY 911, AND ANY OTHER MURDER OF ANYONE, WHY CARNT GEORGE BUSH USE 911 TO JUSTIFY IRAQ. NOT THAT I AGREE WITH THE ILLIGAL INVASION OF IRAQ IM JUST POINTING OUT THE MIND SET THAT SEEMS TO TAKE ANY DISPUTE AND TURN IT INTO AN EXCUSE TO USE TERROR, BUT THE REAL REASON I SUSPECT IS TO PROPERGATE ISLAM THROUGH FEAR AS PER KORAN 2.190 FOOTNOTE.

Joe when you mean the whole arab world supported hitler do you mean the british and french supported hitler as from historical facts most of the arab world was under british or french occupation.
BTW i am sure you are not blind and you can clearly see that my name is shan but using the word sham you have shown the level of your intellect, we do not justify 911 as a consequence of what has happened to muslims as 911 was a inside job. To date no one has answered the question as to how a steel structure hit by plane with fuel on the 80th floor pancakes within 2 hours,steel does not melt as the temperature of burning plane fuel is much lower,if the plane had knocked out the steel beams on the 80th floor then the building would have tilted or collapsed to one side not pancaked. As for spreading islam we could not give two hoots if not a single kaffir became a muslim,end the occupation of palestine-iraq-afghan-kashmir and chechnya and there will be no use for resistance to occupation and oprression. The real terrorists are the ones who travel thousands of miles to attack and occupy nations who have never attacked them.
