NL government wants to abandon key safeguards for hacking of non-targets - about:intel

The Dutch government wants to automatically and administratively gain permission to target victims of hackers.

A proposed addition to the existing Dutch Intelligence and Security Services Act would extend a warrant requested to intercept the communications of a specific hacking organization automatically to the victims of this hacking group. Or, more concretely, if your computer gets hacked by group X and there was a warrant to intercept the traffic of group X, the Dutch services would gain automatic approval to also intercept your communications or hack you.
