Meanwhile, in Sweden...
Today's big news (so far):
The Pirate Bay (file-sharing site) trial has started. There's not much yet on thelocal.se, but here's a short summary. I haven't read up on it very much but the trial will likely have big consequences for copyright issues.
Also, the head of Sweden’s intelligence oversight agency just resigned as a protest against the newish surveillance/wiretapping law. Respect.
***ETA:
You can also read about it here or follow various people's tweets, mostly in English, here.
(Thanks to ooo5 for the links)
There is a live audio broadcast of the trial available too but I rely on other people's comments about it. :-)
