An interesting read. I don't know how much of a force the Pirate Party is in Sweden, but TFA indicates that the pols are concerned enough to consider some changes to the Swedish laws.

My favorite quote is from Anna Sojodin who called the Justice Minister "a lackey of the American Record industry". What makes is great is that they are both officials of the Social Democrat party.
