The current federal government in the USA actively encourages federal agents to use illegal and unethical methods, and promised them protection and immunity.

State governments too. I heard a state judge once say "Of course police are permitted to break the law if they are investigating criminals."

The current federal government of France? Of the EU? The article is not about the USA.

  • The FBI is the primary party appearing to be in this investigation, and to the best of my knowledge are both of the US (govt), and are federal. (I'm not a US person so please correct me if I'm wrong.)

  • > The current federal government of France? Of the EU? The article is not about the USA.

    Are you sure ? They say in the article that they were not able to fing out who sent the email. Site was behind Cloudfare (so US).

  • This article is specifically an article about an investigation by the FBI- US federal agents.

    • The article mentions the FBI investigation but is not about that. This article is about a pressure campaign, the letter Web Abuse Association Defense sent to adguard making threats under french law and adguard's investigation in response to that letter.
