However I doubt even experts have read all the legislation.
I certainly read the legislation in its entireity at the time, because I
needed to implement it. The amount of ambiguity in it (in terms of what we
had to collect) was huge, in no small part because the authors wanted to
be "technology neutral". Rather than saying what we DID have to capture,
they chose to word in in terms of "examples of what does NOT get
captured".
If someone cares to point out where in the legislation authorised
officers can request data retained under Data Retention without a
judicial writ, I'd be grateful, and it would be news to me.

"The act enables approved law enforcement agencies to access this data
without a warrant, except for the specific case of data relating to
journalists."
