Even though officials say they would only use the new update to the so-called “Keeper of the Seals” justice bill to capture sound and images of suspects of certain crimes such as delinquency, organized crime, and terrorism, the critics say this would still be disproportionate.

delinquency? that's so delightfully vague and can mean anything (obviously that's the intention)

I suspect it's less vague in french. The French legal system is more explicit than the American/English systems.
