"Most of the world’s video games from close to 50 years of history are effectively, legally dead. A Video Games History Foundation study found you can’t buy nearly 90% of games from before 2010. Preservationists have been looking for ways to allow people to legally access gaming history, but the U.S. Copyright Office dealt them a heavy blow Friday. Feds declared that you or any researcher has no right to access old games under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, or DMCA."

Have they removed the county mark on the side?

It was a while since I saw a police car, but I remember seeing "Stockholms Län" on the side

I haven't seen one in a while either, but looking at images it does indeed appear that there are no region markings on the cars.

I had a look on the instragrsm account blåljusbilder, and you are right, there isn't any markings for regions/counties on the cars, it might have been a period when they tried it but realized it wouldn't work for some reason
