+Max Petersson what the fuck are you on about mate? The abolishment of censorship is of course meaning the laws we have against it, it's not considering that you 1) are a really insecure person that don't dare say what you like or 2) you have fucked up friends and they are a reason for #1 and you need to change them. I don't relate at all to your bullshit statement, and never has.

Yet that is something you can do in other countries, such as the USA. That is per definition censorship. So whether or not you "relate" to it or not, it's still true, we DO lack a freedom of speech, we are censored by law.

Beside all the stupidity in the comments (this is KZread, after all), here is my experience: I signed up as one of the Swedes that you can call. I've only had the app active during a few spare hours every day, but still recieved 10 calls. Two of them were people who hung up as soon as I replied. The other eight calls were really nice discussions with people from all over the world (UK, USA, The Netherlands and Cameroon just to mention a few). Not a single question about immigration, but lots of interest from potential tourists - a topic I have lots of answer for since I happen to live in the beautiful northern part of Sweden. All in all, a great campaign, and a very successful one. Of course there will be prank calls - but in my experience it has all been about friendly discussions about everything from local tourist attractions to differences between Sweden and [country X]. I really like the campaign, and I have really enjoyed talking to people who I would never had got a chance to speak with if it wasn't for this crazy idea. So... Thanks STF for a whole bunch of smiles and laughter!

Called the number when it was 9:15 pm my time and 3:15 am in Sweden. Got a few voicemails the first few times I called. Finally, I ended up getting an answer. A bunch of drunk guys saying how it's a Swedish tradition to put chopsticks up your ass at night before you go to bed. Then asking to marry me and they'd give me a fake I.D. so I can go over there. Truly an educational and touching conversation. Next time for a more serious convo, I won't call at 3am on Sunday morning. It was a fun experience nonetheless. 10/5 stars would call again

This is so cool! What an awesome program!

This is a great idea, I had a great convo with a kind man who was on lunch break from work :)
