Public calls for deletion of data unlawfully collected by UK Government

LONDON, UK: The UK public has expressed that it would like to see the data deemed by the Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) to be unlawfully collected by GCHQ and MI5 on UK citizens for over a decade deleted. This is according to a OnePoll survey conducted on behalf of security and privacy advice and comparison site Comparitech.com. According to the study carried out on 1,000 members of the UK public, 70% said they would like to see their illegally gathered data deleted - something which the IPT ruling failed to stipulate in its ruling. A further 45% of respondents felt that compensation was also in order.
