Re: Sweden isn't as good as France

And the best part about the government owning the fiber is that they can easily snoop all the data, and depending on the outcome of a few elections, they can determine what data is allowed to be transmitted. Great idea, huh?

In Sweden's case no more so than the broadband being built out on the government tab in the USA will be. Some of the infrastructure built with government support and/or tax breaks. France is all commercial.

EDIT: As I remember your government was quite easily able to snoop what was traversing AT+T's network despite not 'owning the fiber'...
