And it's actually hard to find much that looks like original news articles I thought I read.

This is close enough https://www.pcworld.com/article/448520/dutch-civil-society-g...

Though in my fuzzy memory there were some more specific examples/cases that were reported on.

Ah yes 9 eyes - I was thinking there were 5 and then 7 eyes (and recalled NL wasn't in the first group).

While trying to find years old news articles that mentioned some specific instances of Dutch doing "quid pro quo spying" for another countries ... So far I ran into https://www.jns.org/dutch-agency-spying-on-holocaust-survivo...

And holocaust survivors fits description of OP news article? /Note I didn't read this JNS article, nor know if website is credible/
