Police officers are now asking rape & sexual assault victims for access to their digital devices that has sparked criticism from women's rights campaigners in Britain. They now give consent forms to view messages, photos, emails & social media accounts. Police have warned that prosecutions may not go ahead without permissions. However, women's advocates & privacy campaigners lashed out at the consent forms as overly intrusive.
