two times (1. Prosecutor: Nokia dug up e-mails in effort to plug information leaks in 2000-2001 (18.4.2006), 2. Nokia snooped on employee e-mail communications in 2005 (9.6.2008)), it desided that law was wrong and Nokia has right. So started relentless lobbying and pressure against politicians. Parliament's Constitutional Law Committee asked opinions from eight leagal experts and all were in opinion that law proposal is against constitution. Committee ignored advice and declared that proposed law is constitutional."
