Does this mean that the "truly anonymous" VPN providers that have sprung up like mushrooms in Sweden thanks to a supposedly privacy-friendly law are dead in the water?
- toyg 13y agoyeah, I never got the appeal of those services. After all, it's the country that all but threw out the rulebook to nail the PirateBay people and then Assange. Not the friendliest haven for digital rights, imho.
- tjoff 13y agoI don't know what privacy-friendly law you are talking about. VPNs in Sweden have always been a bad choice, you have less protection than a regular swedish ISP would give you from a legal perspective. The reason VPNs became popular in Sweden is because of the FRA and the IPRED law (giving content producers the right to ask an ISP (via a court) for information about who is behind an IP address so that they can build a case and sue).
