abt
*Swedish Data Collection Law*

...indicts not just Sweden’s privacy protection law, but a European Union directive intended to change the way the world approaches data sharing.


The 24th of October 1998 Sweden got a new law on personal data, "PUL", which is based on EU legislation. The law makes it illegal to give names public on the net, without the mentioned persons "unmistakable consent".
