NEWS The government has launched a website to advise organisations on how to snoop on phone calls, email and web activity without breaking the law. Last week it was announced that the government will enforce its controversial Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) enabling a larger array of organisations to legitimately carry out covert surveillance. The Office of Surveillance Commissioners was established by the Home Office in 1999 to oversee this activity. However, there are concerns that it will now not be able to cope with the number of organisations. Visit the site here http://www.surveillancecommissioners.org
