Well, for me, ALL of this is politics - and it is the political hot potato of the future. We had a Pirate Party here for about a decade and it actually has delegates in the EU, tough the scare that got them there has abated and they'll probably lose their seats in the next election. I hear they've had more success in Germany.But just as this is the hot political of the future, it is also something people will grow up into, like people have grown up into lots of other state controls. Need to carry a passport to travel? Does the state record births? In a historical context, all of these changes are pretty recent (a few hundred years) (and Sweden was at the forefront of most of those changes). People will get used to these things, but also make demands on how they are used. It's not something we can get around, it is the future.</blockquote>
