De nieuwe AIVD/MIVD wet is controversieel - Bert Hubert's writings
a day ago
- The new AIVD/MIVD law has been in development for nearly three years and is considered controversial.
- It enables bulk interception of internet and phone cables with near-automatic permission, but only for exploration.
- Rules for actual tapping are loosened, requiring only an indication of traffic streams, and making it easier to tap Dutch citizens.
- Prior review for AI analysis of intercepted data is removed, allowing post-hoc analysis of communication patterns.
- If you are hacked by a target of the services, you can be automatically hacked and tapped without notification.
- Oversight is changed with less prior review and more optional ex-post review, including a complex appeal process criticized by constitutional law professors.
