German opposition politicians criticize the lack of regulation in the government’s draft reform of the intelligence services law regarding the use of ad-based data. Clara Bünger of the Left Party and Konstantin von Notz of the Greens warn that such data should never be used by intelligence agencies. They argue that the state should not access commercial data through advertising, which could pose a risk to national security. The government has not yet provided clear guidelines, despite repeated calls from politicians for action. The debate is part of the ongoing discussion on the intelligence services reform, which aims to significantly expand the powers of the intelligence agencies. More: netzpolitik.org
