"If you want to get a feel for the gobsmacking amount of information
being collected by UK surveillance agencies (MI5, M16, GCHQ), all you
have to do is see how it's being misused."

Not particularly surprising.  This sort of thing is always a temptation
when people have access to vast amounts of data.  Any time data is
collected and retained, that creates risk in and of itself.

Cheers,
