The Home Office Investigatory Powers Unit is a little known unit of the UK Home Office.
Activities
The Register charged in 2017 that "UK Home Office's Investigatory Powers Unit (HOIPU) anonymously responded to an Ofcom consultation urging the regulator to maintain a "security"-related ban on GSM devices that help people get cheap calls abroad." The Home Office admitted to the Register that the anonymous response came from its Investigatory Powers Unit, but "suggested that its anonymity was a mere admin error."[1]
