The plans in the draft bill include:

Internet service providers having to store for a year all details of online
communication in the UK - such as the time, duration, originator and recipient
of a communication and the location of the device from which it was made.

They would also be having to store for the first time all Britons' web
browsing history and details of messages sent on social media, webmail, voice
calls over the internet and gaming, in addition to emails and phone calls

Police not having to seek permission to access details of these
communications, if investigating a crime

Police having to get a warrant from the home secretary to be able to see the
actual content of any messages

Four bodies having access to data: the police, the Serious and Organised Crime
Agency, the intelligence agencies and HM Revenue and Customs
