Risky Bulletin: Dutch intel services to get extensive new powers

The Dutch government has introduced legislation to expand surveillance powers for its domestic and military intelligence agencies, citing threats from Russia, China, and Iran. The bill streamlines operational procedures while introducing new technical capabilities and oversight requirements.

Why it matters: Organizations and individuals in the Netherlands should understand expanded intelligence collection authorities may increase surveillance of communications and digital activity, with implications for privacy and data handling practices.
