Sweden's privacy protection 'second worst in EU' after Britain
Sweden is second from bottom in the EU when it comes to protecting its citizens' private integrity, according to a new report by civil liberties group Privacy International. The Privacy and Human Rights Report is a 1,200 page document measuring a range of criteria surrounding surveillance and privacy protection.
This year the study focussed on the EU and eleven other benchmark countries. Sweden could only manage 24th place in the EU with an aggregate score of 2.2 out of a possible 5. Germany came top of the pile with a rating of 3.9. The UK achieved the lowest score in the EU by quite some margin, scoring just 1.5.
