The Swedish Constitution, that is. Sweden's Chancellor of Justice has just put up a challenge against all public libraries, claiming that all filtering software is unconstitutional (See this Aftonbladet article if you can read swedish). Apparently the argument runs that the filtering software is a form of censorship, here used by the Government (represented by the public libraries) to reduce access to certain media outlets it finds undesirable, thus running against our constitutional-status Freedom of the Press Act and Fundamental Law on Freedom of Expression.
Nice. But ever so slightly insane.
