The rules mention that the police must notify the owners of the computers or information, so police wouldn't be secretly hacking into your computers without telling you. That actually would be pretty bad. The malware one seems entirely reasonable to me. If you have malware, chances are you're aiding criminals by providing them with hardware to commit their crimes with. Why shouldn't a judge issue a search warrant or have your computer seized? The computer is literally part of the crime scene. If you don't like it, don't install malware. The first one I'm not really sure where it would be used. Is it just, say, "police are allowed to use TOR vulnerabilities to gain access to the servers serving .onion links in the course of their investigation"? I guess their point is that the changes should've been initiated by Congress, since it's more than procedural. I can buy that, even if the changes themselves seem innocent enough.
