GCHQ internet surveillance 'was unlawful', tribunal rules

BBC News
The mass surveillance of the internet by UK intelligence agency GCHQ prior to December was unlawful, a tribunal has ruled.
The Investigatory Powers Tribunal said the intelligence sharing regime used did not comply with human rights law until recently.
It said there was a lack of transparency.
Privacy International and Liberty were among those who made the initial complaint.
