isnt Finland and Sweden like the gods of the internet?
from what i have seen everything over there is legal and no other nation/country can touch them with any of there crappy laws about the internet
a big example: "the pirate bay", they have been sued so many time, but sweden's laws are way diffrent than any other nation
i dont know that much about eu laws and other nations, but the internet was made for people to share info faster, so all this is just crap
it should be free
and couldnt the whole trying to block sites just be bypassed with proxies?

IRC is a finnish invention and so is Linux. Sweden however is known for being the Switzerland of Internet. Pirate Bay is swedish and so is WikiLeaks (AFAIK). Though PirateBay was sued and they lost. 5 other similar sites closed in fear of getting sued in Sweden. Well see how it goes, as i dont think weve still seen the end of it though.

...and on todays news they are saying that they might have to redo the case since the judge was heavily involved with some copyright lobbyists in Sweden or something like that.
