    Under a fresh Brussels decision the police across the EU have been given the green light to expand the implementation of a rarely used power involving warrantless intrusive surveillance of private property. This strategy will allow French, German and other EU forces to ask British officers to hack into someone’s UK computer and pass along any information they find there.

    It only takes a senior officer’s approval as long as that officer believes that it is proportionate and necessary to prevent or detect a serious crime which would mean any crime that would get you three years or more in jail.
