 From the initial discussions in Sweden around the new electronic

tapping free of charge. If this turns out to be the case, I guess it is 
pretty much the same all over Europe as the law is supposed to be based 
on a EU framework.

Slightly off topic:

This is being fought by ISPs and civil rights groups all over the place here.

It is amazing how much brain-damage is defended by "EU Framework" these days.
It is also amazing how much national politicians and  pressure groups can
assert things about *neighboring* countries that are blatantly wrong or 
totally out-of-date. In the EU political structures and processes still
have to be built; it is a new thing.
