"why sweden rules the internet"

http://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/features/why-sweden-rules-the-web-1640950.html

from the article:

Rick Falkvinge is the leader of Sweden's most plugged-in political group, The Pirate Party. "In the rest of Europe," he says, "the internet roll-out was done by telecommunications companies, who had an incentive to delay it for as long as possible because it shattered their existing business model. When you put disruptive technology into everyone's hands, it changes public perceptions of what you can, and should, do with it."
