As long as foreign communications networks or search engines are used, communications should be requested, even if there is no concrete suspicion.

So-called internal communication is the Uk’s stricter protected; should only be requested if there is a concrete suspicion, appointed in a court order. The government bypasses that legal protection so a large part of the domestic communications to be regarded as foreign.
