An Act of Solidarity

On the day when I announce my first blog holiday in months, I learn that prominent Swedish blogger Henrik Alexandersson might be arrested and questioned on suspicion of publishing classified information. The rumour of an imminent arrest came about after the National Defence Radio Establishment (FRA) reported the blogger to the Chancellor of Justice.

As an act of solidarity, I publish the single-page document that might result in legal problems for Mr Alexandersson. I do it because it’s obvious to me that revenge is what motivates the government authorities to act. Henrik Alexandersson is one of the fiercest critics of Sweden’s new snoop law, which will allow FRA to read all emails, listen to all mobile conversations, and monitor the Internet habits of ordinary citizens.
