Sofie Kindahl from the Gender Equality Agency emphasized that Sweden's online sex market has shifted exploitation, trafficking and transactions onto digital platforms, with websites now drawing over 100,000 Swedish visitors each month and facilitating reviews that often objectify women.Lisa Kaati of Stockholm University described the environment as "sick," noting profound vulnerability of women selling sex online, and evidence suggests organized crime involvement and foreign-hosted servers complicate police efforts.In a case from October 2025, a Swedish television journalist was charged with purchasing sex after selling his pregnant girlfriend's services, but his prosecution was dropped in December 2024 due to lack of evidence, highlighting victim vulnerability and delayed intervention.
