Sweden's Gov is Stupid

All they did with this new law is protect criminals.

Now when they need to trace an IP for a real crime, the ISP will say sorry we do not have that info since you forced us to deleted all ip info so we did not have to get involved with the filesharing issues.

I suspect Sweden knew exactly what they were doing when they passed this law. It pleases both sides.

Don't worry. The law coming next requiring ISPs to save data for 6 months will solve that problem. And the ISP CEO making a big noise about destroying IP data says he will comply with the retention law.

Swedish Law makers are in fact currently working on new legislation based on the European Union's data retention directive, which requires ISPs to store electronic data for a minimum of six months.

If the legislation is enacted, Karlung said Bahnhof would continue to stay within the bounds of the law.

"If the state decides that everything has to be handed over to various private organisations, then we will of course comply

Duh. What did you expect him to say? Right and wrong goes out the window at the point of a gun.

TK Junk Mail, you of all people should be against such regulations and unfunded mandates.

Right. Because being able to associate an IP address with an individual has been proven bulletproof in their identification of the real criminals. It's also done wonders to stop child pornography. And 411 scams. And counterfeit drugs. And ponzi schemes. And identity theft. And all of the hundreds of other illegal activities done online.

And just to remove all doubt, yes, that was sarcasm in my post above.

it's not like they can provide a logfile with only criminals in it.

I don't think the government of any country has a right to monitor 'web surfing'
