   • 2020 April 16, Petter Holm, “Järnrörsfilmaren vinner i HD – upphovsrättslagen bör ändras [The "iron pipe" filmmaker wins in the supreme court – copyright law should be changed]”, in Dagens Juridik:

     En utgångspunkt som domstolar brukar upprepa är att URL:s inskränkningar är undantag, som ska tolkas restriktivt och enligt sin ordalydelse. 23 § 3 p. URL möjliggör återgivande av ett verk i samband med rapportering av en dagshändelse i en tidning eller tidskrift, om det sker i enlighet med god sed och i den omfattning som motiveras av ändamålet.

     A principle often reiterated by courts is that the exceptions in the Swedish Copyright Act are exceptions that should be interpreted restrictively and according to their wording. Section 23, Paragraph 3 of the Swedish Copyright Act allows for the reproduction of a work in connection with reporting a current event in a newspaper or magazine, provided it is done in accordance with good practice and to the extent justified by the purpose.
