I would not host in Norway. I don't know about Switzerland but I used to live in Norway for a long time and the govt engages in forced DNS censorship and forces ISPs to give up logs. I would avoid supporting that kind of behavior if possible.

Yes, there is a CP filter offered by Kripos (criminal police), which ISPs can opt in if they want. It is not mandatory by law. It is actively updated with current and past sites that have been deemed illegal according to laws and manually added to the filter.

The user get a warning, an explanation why CP is bad and an assurance that the incident IS NOT LOGGED.

By court order, like every other county I've bothered to check up on in the past. I challenge you to prove that the Swiss courts can't do the same.
