This is very very concerning and what we should be campaigning about.

Thanks for mentioning this site. Much of the information comes from the JRRT / FIPR report on the Database State – we hope it is a good way of showing what this means, and also giving people a way to engage on the issue, such as complaining about the “Intercept Modernisation” proposals.
