Net neutrality-lovin' Sweden mulls law to censor the internet

Ah, we have the next bugaboo

Protecting innocent citizens against terrorists and children against paedophiles seem to have outlived their usefulness for getting everyone to support draconian policies. So last decade. And protecting us from the evils of drugs and bike gangs is so last century.

So I'm guessing protecting us all from the evils of internet gambling is to be the next big draconian-pushing bugaboo? I don't know how effective it'll be though; it doesn't quite seem to have the emotive cachet of "but think of the children!"
