Hacking back is a technique to counter cybercrime by hacking the computing devices of the attacker.
The effectiveness[1][2][3] and ethics of hacking back are disputed.[4]
It is also very disputed if it is legal or not, however both participating parties can still be prosecuted for their crimes.
There was a bill proposed in 2017 to make this possible, ended consideration in 2019. In 2022 it reappeared.[clarification needed]
