Abstract
The Swedish law enforcement agencies have a wide variety of secret

The Swedish law enforcement agencies have a wide variety of secret

activities. But due to the technological development on the communication

This stemmed in the development of a new law, “secret data reading”. The aim
of this paper is to investigate underlying social conflict that led up to this new
law and what expected effect the law has in relation to its purpose and the
underlying conflict. With the help of governmental reports and investigations
the result points to the emerging use of encrypted and anonymised
communication amongst criminals as the cause of the conflict. The anticipated
effect of the law is illustrated through a criminal legal case, which indicates
that the law has the prerequisite to fulfil its intended purpose and thus fill the
gap in the law enforcement agencies means of coercion. (Less)
