Bundestag approves bill further empowering spy agencies

Today, the Bundestag, Germany’s lower house of parliament, passed a bill that lets the bnd, Germany’s foreign intelligence service, use artificial intelligence for surveillance to target networks of foreign hacking groups and foreign weapons production. The bill, which would also allow the BfV, Germany’s domestic intelligence service, to secretly enter private residences, is likely to become law by the end of the year.
