I was referring to the EU (digital rights ireland) and UK ([2015] EWHC 
2092) supreme courts decisions that the then/present comms data 
_retention_ regime was/is/are illegal.


AFAIR. there might have been something in those judgements about comms 
data disclosure as well .. but in any case, you can't disclose what you 
ain't got.



now iffn GCHQ are collecting bulk comms data in real time - I'd be 
pretty damn sure that that was illegal as well.
