EPTWhat is ipred?
Ipred is a Swedish law that allows record companies, movie companies, game companies, program companies (EX. Adobe, EA games, 21st Century fox, Virgin records.)
IPRED makes it legal for them to take our ip-adress and request that our ISP gives them all the information they have on us (ex. Name, adress, phone number and so on)
What happens when they have my name/info?
In som countries theyve sent out letters demanding you pay a sum, about (5000-10000 kr). But in extreme cases, like if youve downloaded and uploaded extremly much then they will probably file a civil suit (Civilmål) against you directly. A Civil suit will cost about 150,000 kr to 300,000 kr according to DN (Dagens nyheter)
Whats a Civil suit?
A Civil suit is when a company or person sues another company or person for money. With other words, you cant be send to jail only be fined(Skadestånd).
*You cant get a public defender (You have to pay for a lawyer)
*If you lose you have to pay for their lawyer to.
*They can demand a house search without you even knowing about it. (They can kick your door in any second looking for evidence)

Thx for the post. According to aftonbladet.se the swedish internet traffic was reduced alot since IPRED applied.
1-0 IPRED?
Just adding one thing, if they want to do a search in your apartment for evidence, they must use the police, and if the police is going to do a search they need a warrant, and to get a warrant the sentance of the crime must be more then 2 years in jail.
So, no they cant just barge into your home uninvited just like that.
WRONG Dosent work like that in Sweden...
"Sry to say this but in sweden the police actually dont need a warrant, if a policeman SUSPECTS SERIOUS CRIME they can just go into your home and search it
THOUGH, the sentance for the suspected crime must be jail for them being allowed to do this !
