How can this be Alliansens fault? It was the current government-assigned general director of the Transport Agency that knowingly broke the law. She was even informed by SÄPO (Swedish equivalent of MI5 or CIA) that what she's trying to do is illegal, but still went through with it.

The problem here is not outsourcing, because it is completely legal to do so as long as the company outsourced to goes through with proper security checks and clearances. For example the servers has to be located in Sweden and that proper access permissions are set for the employees.

Outsourcing can in some cases be a very good choice to improve efficiency of tax spending.

> SÄPO (Swedish equivalent of MI5 or CIA)

Nitpicking: Säpo is not the Swedish equivalent of the CIA. e.g., the single largest expense of Säpo is protection of dignitaries, which is a role held by the USSS, not the CIA.

SÄPO is more equiv to Special Branch than MI5.

If SAPO let this happen, after they advised her. Then thats on SAPO.

But then, there is perhaps something she is not telling them. Because to implement this AFTER your main intel service says its not a good idea or legal, is kind of ...odd isnt it?

I would assume you speak Swedish, based on your insight into Swedish politics, so here's a timeline of the events: http://www.dn.se/nyheter/sverige/detta-vet-vi-om-transportst...

Notice how it starts in 2015. The last election we had was in 2014 and that's when the change in government occurred. Check your facts, don't just parrot stuff you read on blogs :)
