What the petition asks

The Investigatory Powers Bill (IP Bill) fails to meet international standards. By allowing surveillance without reasonable suspicion, it compromises the fundamental right to privacy as outlined in Article 12 of the Human Rights Act. We ask that the bill is revised to defend our human rights.
