The government “probably won’t” force internet service providers with no history of working with the intelligence services into retaining internet records following wide-ranging new powers passed in the Investigatory Powers Bill, the Home Office has said.
Last week the Investigatory Powers Bill - dubbed the Snoopers Charter - passed, which will require internet providers to record the websites and apps to which their customers connect. It is due to become law by the end of 2016.
It has been widely criticised by technology companies across the board, including Apple and Google.
Vpn can easily bypass the internet service providers and overcome the upcoming bill as the government has no control over it.
