For anyone not reading the article: "[In Sweden], the tax authority doesn’t just use this information for administrative purposes – but sells it to data brokers who publish it online."

The government shouldn't ever sell people's private data - not for profit, not for anything.

Ok, I see now how that could happen - I forget people would abuse a law like that.

Thanks.

Why would it suppress left politicians? It's not like any of them have multiple extremism convictions, that's usually rightwing politicians.
