And it's been confirmed useless anyway

Yes, you read that right - the government has admitted that overseas service providers, cafes and many other organisation types won't be required to store any metadata nor make what they do store available without a warrant.

So if you want to continue your nefarious plans, you have to ... make sure you don't use your ISP email, and log on to your TerryWrist198109@gmail.com account at Starbucks et al (or at work).

This needs the "Genius" meme applied liberally. Or perhaps the heavy-handed and repeated application of a hammer to the privates of each person proposing it.
