US dissident in Sweden
The Dagens Nyheter reported yesterday that a US citizen, Mr Ritt Goldstein, is in Sweden asking for political asylum. Alledgedly he has been systematically harassed and persecuted by US police after organizing resistance against police violence and brutality. The NYPD 'zero tolerance success' has recently been praised here as something for the Swedish police to learn from. Luckily the 'up yours' story surfaced soon afterwards. The latest crypto policy news here says that Sweden will not go along will mandatory GAK. In the long run there is little hope for European resistance to the New World Order, though. Only France has nuclear warheads out of US control and France is The Enemy as the leading proponent of an EU Superstate. Asgaard

I wouldn't count on Sweden as a haven for strong crypto or, in particular, untraceable anonymity. Also, the Swedish national police have quite a few skeletons in their closet with respect to personal integrity (look for references to IB, the "Information Bureau" or read the entire series of Sjovall/Wahloo "Martin Beck" novels.)
