SAPO pushes mobile operators - Swedish Dagbladet

Today SAPO want the operators to automatically disclose information about individuals’ data and telephone, but several operators refuse or are reluctant to introduce the system.

On the recording you will hear how the Security Service ensures that subscribers never need to know how operators choose to cooperate with the Security Police and other justice system.

– When we sign these agreements so we commit ourselves also to not tell you what we have agreements with and the technical solution we have chosen. But these very technical bits, when we have done deal, it goes out and we never talk about. It is a matter of pride for us, says Kurt Alavaara, signaling a strategic advisor at Sapo, in the recording.

Several operators will according to the radio have been involved in meetings with SAPO and beset with hard arguments where SAPO argue that operators reluctance to cooperate may play into the hands of terrorists.

On the recording you will hear how Kurt Alavaara presses Banhofs Jon Karlung.

– We suspect a terrorist attack in central Stockholm and receive information that makes it valuable for us to overcome. And here we are on Friday night at 20 outside office hours. The answer, manual handling, means that we get the delivery on Monday morning. Then slamming it in Stockholm city with 800 deaths. I do not think you want to be CEO of Bahnhof, when you say you want to do assessments in operational matters.
