We should take legal actions against Dutch LE

Dutch LE thought they were smart but they just crossed the line and their entire operation is very likely to get them into huge troubles. First of all this is unprecedented, at least in Europe. This was not a simple Honeypot. They ran, hosted and maintained the website and willingly delivered drugs to consumers acting just like the Hansa admin for a month. They didn't took in consideration that someone could do an overdosis from the stuff they were selling, this is proved by the fact that they only removed Fentanyl in the last days. To make a metaphor it would be the same if they would have sold those drugs on the street for one month in order to later arrest the buyers. During one interview when asked if the police was selling drugs they were very uncomfortable with it. All this is good material to prove they were acting out of the legal scope. Especially if you are Dutch I advise you to write to prosecutors and ask them to open an investigation on the Hansa operation.

In the 90's the justice department of The Netherlands sanctioned trafficking of drugs by one gang to be able to catch another drug trafficking ring. It's known as "IRT affair" and it didn't end well for LE. Dutch Parliament investigated and law's where changed to prevent it from happening again. However all seems to be forgotten and recently law's where changed to allow LE to hack computers abroad. As the bust of Hansa shows LE hasn't wasted any time to use and abuse their new powers.

1) LE didn't deliver any drugs to anyone. The vendors and the shipping companies they used did. LE was simply observing this all go on as it had been
2) LE didn't sell anything - again, the vendors were the only ones selling, even after LE took control of the site infrastructure, LE did not start selling drugs pretending to be vendors, they simply watched existing vendors continue on with their selling business
3) Your analogy of LE selling drugs on the street, only to arrest the buyers, is not valid. LE did not sell anything, they merely watched the vendors continue to sell as they had been selling
4) You won't find a single government representative that would even consider LE as the ones in the wrong here
