That designation lets authorities investigate, disrupt, freeze assets, and criminally prosecute people who join, support, train with, or otherwise assist the group.\n\nIt targets an online accelerationist network that promotes lone‑wolf violence, affects law enforcement, individuals linked to the group, and online platforms, and extends existing counter‑terrorism powers to address digital extremist networks."},"flash_summary":{"complexity_score":2,"scope_assessment":{"changed":false,"description":"The instrument does not change the Criminal Code or its powers; it only applies the Code's existing definition by naming a specific organisation (s4).
