    They absolutely are. It's one thing to beg for the right to do something. It's entirely different to be able to just do it without the permission.

    Did people forget how big of a deal the printing press was?

    Of course I recall the printing press that still exists today. But the UK has chosen to censor itself politically, therefore technologically.

    Unless you know of a magical “ignore law” technology, let me know it!
