Hungary's new Sovereignty Protection Authority can investigate nearly anyone

A government's "wall of shame" sounds like fun:

"The SPA will investigate individual cases, and the results will be made publicly available on the agency's website. These 'notices on findings' will contain the facts uncovered during the investigation, but will also include "help" interpreting them. In fact, they will also provide information on what should be interpreted and how."

It apparently comes also with criminalization:

"If the SPA detects an irregularity that it deems worthy of an infringement procedure, criminal prosecution or other proceedings, it will notify the competent authority."

In principle, though, if there would not be punitive actions but only transparency improvements, not everything would be bad:

"The proposal details the possibility of reviewing and investigating organisations which use foreign funding to influence the outcome of elections, as well as those who use foreign funds to influence voters. 'Influence' is also a broad term in these cases, which means that if any election-related organisation receives funds from abroad, it can effectively be investigated by the office."
