Interception Modernisation Programme

[Chris Edwards]

Discussed here in July.  Now in the mainstream media - e.g:

 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/07/detica_interception_modernisation/

 "Billions of pounds of public money will soon be up for grabs for private 
 IT contractors ready to serve the Interception Modernisation Programme - 
 UK spy chiefs' plan to store details of every call, email, text and web 
 browsing session."

Although the word "interception" is used a lot, it looks to me like 
they're really talking about traffic data - and lots of it.
