Senior officers also want powers to attack and close down websites,
and a new criminal offence of using the internet to prepare acts of
terrorism, to "suppress inappropriate internet usage".

They also want to make it a criminal offence for suspects to refuse to
cooperate in giving the police full access to computer files by
refusing to disclose their encryption keys.
