TL;DR AI-generated The German government plans to grant intelligence services like the domestic intelligence agency (Verfassungsschutz) and the Federal Intelligence Service (Bundesnachrichtendienst) operational powers. This reform aims to enable them to actively counter espionage, sabotage, and cyberattacks, beyond just information gathering. The legislative changes still require approval from the Bundestag and Bundesrat.
