UK spying laws: Re-drafted Investigatory Powers Bill expands police power to look at people's entire internet history

The new Investigatory Powers Bill will allow the police to look into all of everyone's internet browsing history.

Theresa May has presented the re-drafted bill as including new provisions for user privacy. But a key part of the bill expands the powers that police have to look at Internet Connection Records (ICRs) — a full list of every website that a person has connected to.

Internet service providers (ISPs) must hold on to the browsing histories of all of their users for a year, and hand them over to authorities when required to.
