Chinese proposal to meter Internet traffic

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/politics/8417680.stm

China wants to meter all internet traffic that passes through its 
borders, it has emerged.

The move would require international agreement - but it is being 
discussed by the United Nations body in charge of internet standards. 

....

"An ITU spokesman said: "The ITU has no plans to modify the BGP 
protocol, which is not an ITU-T standard."

        and this is different than the Swedish law that requires
        all traffic that crosses their border to be monitored?

Opinions expressed may not even be mine by the time you read them, and
certainly don't reflect those of any other entity (legal or otherwise).
