Summary: This book demonstrates that, irrespective of motive, perhaps the greatest irony of Edward Snowden's 2013 disclosures to various international media outlets is that the Investigatory Powers Act 2016 represents not a curtailment of huge, previously secret State power, but rather its probably irreversible 'transparent' entrenchment.
