Don't forget Dutch citizens voted previously in a national referendum against mass surveillance which was promptly ignored and the right to call a referendum repealed.
Indeed, and the government don't care about the laws anyway.
I lived next door to someone that was busted for growing weed. The neighbor on the other side was involved at the time and then continued to harrass him then me because I complained about it for the next 10 1/2 years. The law only allows use of a civilian for a year with a contract in advance and no committing crimes. Didn't stop them. They spent more than 1 million euros in harrassing someone who was already convicted and then their neighbor because they complained.
I was told by the police that my phone had been tapped already, though I had already guessed that.
