Concerning the Investigatory Powers Bill

Dear Karin Smyth,

I am emailing you on the matter of the matter of the Investigatory Powers Bill Also Known As The snoopers charter, that is going through parliament. It Doesn't change anything and targets innocent people more than it does the criminal, but also technically hard to implement.

This bill as you may all ready know requires that internet service providers keep a record of the sites that customer has visited and allow GCHQ to wiretap

### It is has technical limitations

#### Data retention

According to this [register artical](http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/11/04/investigatory_powers_bill/) the law will allow Intelligence agency and police to get the addresses of the site that the individual is beening investigated, this one is easy to set up because of the way information is sent over the internet.

The second one that ISP's have to implement and can only be acquired with a warrant has problems, the first problem is that it requires a proxy to be set up, a proxy is software that takes web traffic and stores or processes it, the problem with this is that it will slow down traffic massively during high load times. Secondly Proxys can only analyze http or unencrypted traffic, but as most sites now encrypt traffic between them and the users using https that is encrypted, this causes problems with the warranted collection as the the last bit of the address

### It Targets Innocent people more than criminals?

In recent PR events it has been stated that this bill is to catch all kind of criminals from drug gangs to pedophiles to terrorists, it wont do that. Most of the criminals in that list will know how to hide there tracks, from encrypting their traffic to encrypting the email's and messages they send to each other, meaning that any of the powers that this bill implements will not work with these people because
