Description

This book examines the UK's response to terrorist communication, exploring whether individual privacy and collective security have been successfully managed and balanced. It assesses the challenges faced by British law enforcement agencies in tracing potential terrorists, particularly in relation to new digital surveillance powers introduced by the Investigatory Powers Act 2016.

The author develops a 'digital rights criterion' to challenge these bulk surveillance powers against international human rights standards, and examines their compatibility with EU law and the European Court of Justice's jurisprudence. The book also considers the impact on intelligence exchange between the UK and the US following Brexit.
