From the 1st of April police will be able to secretly read data when suspecting a serious crime. The new law means that police and other crime fighting authorities can gain access to computers and other technological devices used for communication, for example mobile phones. The regulation may only be used against "especially serious crimes" (jfl).

Swedish authorities are no strangers to surveillance, this might as well be a rubber stamp.
