Some more appalling news from the UK legal system:
https://www.theguardian.com/society...scrap-digital-data-extraction-forms-for-cases
Yes indeed, how DARE the police RAPE someone's digital data in order to uncover EVIDENCE that MAY be used against those accusing others of a very serious crime! Why, the whole notion is clearly a Human Rights issue, I mean, like, fuck those guys who turned out to be innocent, right?
Because we aren't already overloaded beyond capacity with regards to rape allegations, it must be our solemn duty to ensure MORE and MORE people are THOROUGHLY ENCOURAGED to file for rape in ever larger numbers!!!! Because 60,000 a year simply isn't ENOUGH, we MUST HAVE MORE!!!!
Police and CPS scrap digital data extraction forms for rape cases
Exclusive:
case of two complainants funded by Equality and Human Rights Commission forces U-turn.
The CPS and police have been forced to scrap controversial “digital strip searches” of rape complainants, following a legal threat from two survivors of sexual abuse and sustained campaigning from privacy and human rights groups.
Little more than a year after a new policy around the disclosure of private information was introduced, the police and CPS have made a major U-turn and will withdraw digital data extraction consent forms from operation.
Funded by the Equality and Human Rights Commission, the Centre for Women’s Justice took on the case of two complainants who argued that the forms – which required them to divulge all their mobile phone data – were unlawful, discriminatory and intrusive.

Harriet Wistrich, director of CWJ welcomed the withdrawal of the forms but said they should never have been used. “Their effect has been to delay rape cases and deter many victims from coming forward or continuing with their cases,” she said.
