Sweden Sued over Snoop Law

“A lawyer at the European University Institute in Florence has reported Sweden’s new surveillance law to the European Commission,” The Local reports.

Lawyer Robin Lööf believes the law—which allows the National Defence Radio Establishment (Försvarets Radioanstalt—FRA) to intercept all calls, emails and phone text messages crossing Swedish borders—to be in clear breach of fundamental rights governing the movement of goods and services in the European Union.

Good!
