According to Decrypt, police seized the Autistici/Inventati server under a 1981 treaty after the U.S. designated the Italian activist group “global terrorists.” The transfer of U.S.-requested data occurred following the seizure.
Autistici/Inventati is an anti-fascist activist group. The U.S. designation labeled the group as “global terrorists,” which led to the server’s seizure under the 1981 treaty provision cited by Dutch authorities. No further details about timing beyond the seizure are provided.
The handover involved U.S. data requests linked to the seized server. The action reflects the application of the 1981 treaty mechanism in this case. The designation and resulting legal step occurred prior to the data transfer.
