praps writes "There's been much controversy lately over Sweden's new law which allows the signal intelligence agency (FRA) to monitor all data traffic within the country's borders. The Swedish government has kept curiously quiet about the new law's objectives but sources close to the intelligence community say that Russia is the prime target. "80 percent of Russia's contacts with large parts of the world travel through cables in Sweden. That is the core of the issue," said one source."
