Nu Labor must be salivating with envy. Mind you, once all the tech companies have left Sweden there won't be much left worth spying on any more. thelocal.se is also a good source for Swedish news in English, which should be of interest to everyone at the moment as the ‘Moderate’ (Conservative) government just adopted the most draconian surveillance laws in Europe – and they’ve got the tech know-how to make it work too.

Lee? It's Boing Boing. Not reading it, I get, it's very high traffic and I took it from my feeds about a year ago, but not aware of it? It's Boing Boing. Top 5 global blog: http://www.wikio.com/blogs/top If you're interested in online free speech, copyright infringement crap, blogging generally, etc it's a pretty good source. Just don't mention Violet Blue... I dunno, young bloggers these days, I can remember a day when everyone read all the main blogs... (I can't recall what I did to relieve the boredom though...)

Not seen BoingBoing, cheers.

BoingBoing always keeps a good eye out for people taking liberties too.
