When you consider RIPA, where both parties to the intercept have given permission for their communication to be intercepted, this is not an interception under RIPA.

See RIPA Chapter 10

"10.3 Section 3(l) of the Act authorises the interception of a
communication if both the person sending the communication and
the intended recipient(s) have consented to its interception, or where
the person conducting the interception has reasonable grounds for
believing that all parties have consented to the interception.
"

Which is where the thinking re the HO document and whether or not interception is occurring where users have opted in to receive adverts from sites that are displaying adverts.

From what BT have said (quoting Emma Sanderson) "Anyone who puts a webpage on the internet does so for the purpose of people making copies of it for the purpose of looking at it and assessing the information contained in it." so that covers the reasonable grounds clause, not.

Just noticed this on pg 36 of the RIPA document:
Chapter 9
CoMpLAINts
9.1 The Act establishes an independent Tribunal. This Tribunal will
be made up of senior members of the judiciary and the legal
profession and is independent of the Government. The Tribunal has
full powers to investigate and decide any case within its jurisdiction.
9.2 This code does not cover the exercise of the Tribunal’s functions.
Details of the relevant complaints procedure can be obtained from
the following address:
The Investigatory Powers Tribunal
PO Box 33220
London
SWIH 9ZQ
( 0207 273 4514


I am sure that somehow, rather than a FoI for RIPA, someone can put forward a complaint?

I beleive there is something similar available for windows.

Edit - Windows Version Here:

The Mac does not understand tcptraceroute. Instead, the following works:

traceroute nodpi.org 443

(once I get to the hosting for nodpi, I just get bounced off the firewall)
