'Britain's spies should be allowed to continue harvesting large amounts of
data from emails, the government's reviewer of terror legislation said.



David Anderson has published a review of so-called bulk interception powers.
He found there was no viable alternative to the use of the powers by GCHQ,
MI5 and MI6 in the fight against terror.

He also backed the hacking of phones and computers "in principle", with some
reservations.

The operational case for this kind of surveillance, known as "bulk equipment
interference," was "not yet proven" as it had yet to be used, he said...'
