Submission + - Germany declare hacking tools illegal (arstechnica.com)

Submitted by dubbelj
dubbelj writes: Germany have updated their computer crime law to declare "hacking tools" illegal. This will make most of the network admin and computer security people in a gray area at work. How will this affect Linux distribution in Germany as most of standard Linux distributions come with these kind of "hacking tools" installed by default? How will the rest of EU member countries react on this law, will there be lobbying for the other countries to implement this kind of laws also? Articles in ars technica and The Register.
