Most people want to believe rather than to know, to take for granted rather than to find out. (James Thurber)

The last Soviet states
Some years ago a Swedish minister claimed that Norway was "the last Soviet state."
Maybe he was right. However, this summer Sweden has definitely put itself in Norway's shoes. In fact, with this new law, Sweden controls and monitors its citizens even more than they do in Norway.
".....Sweden has passed a law allowing all cross-border internet and telephone traffic to be monitored.....The law, announced on the parliamentary website, allows the military National Defence Radio Establishment to monitor Swedes' internet usage as well as content from e-mails, phone calls and text messages...."

I can sense the drooling and the smacking of lips in Brussels...as this will most likely become a European Union law as well.
