This isn't exactly true. RedphoneSecurity has a WIPO patent filing.
That
gives them priority in every WIPO country, which is basically the
civilized world. (184 member countries).

The patent is valid for priority in Sweden. Swedish residents will
have
to obtain a patent license.
That assume the PCT search report indicate that it is possible to
patent this idea in Sweden. We haven't seen the PCT report, so it is
not possible to tell. Still, until the patent has been issued, as
far as I know, it is not valid.
But this tangent seems off-topic, so I'll refrain from further
generic patent-discussions.
