    Why?

    Just that. Why? Who is actually dumb enough to think that that is a good idea?

    Dutch intelligence agencies already stopped sharing certain types of information with the US after trump then used that for his personal quick gain, destroying years of intelligence work.

    This isn’t even intelligence, this is your citizens. This is data on your citizens that the US WILL abuse.

    So, why?
