GEZ in Sweden
Of course there is a Swedish television license collection agency like the GEZ in Germany. But their methods are even further developed as you can see in this comic strip from yesterday's Dagens Nyheter.
I also prepared an English version for those of you who don't speak Swedish.

Radiotjänst are famous for being very persistent about getting people to pay the television licence. I wouldn't be surprised if they went after exchange students. After all, just about a week or so after I moved in I recieved a letter from them, pleading to my conscience. Luckily, I have nothing to hide either, so if they came knocking on my door I'd love to offer them a cup of coffee.
The same applies in Germany. The GEZ is said to use dubious methods to find out if you own a television or a radio. Nowadays you even have to pay the fee if you have a PC with an Internet connection because you have the possibility to watch/hear a live stream - no matter if you do it or not.
