The same law for everyone

If global trawling of communications applies to members of the public (regardless of whether those communications are of a private or business nature) it should also apply to all private and official communications by government officers including those of the security agencies.

It is a fundamental principle of our laws that they apply equally to all persons.

Or is it?
