I live in the UK, I do not have a TV license as I do not watch it neither broadcast nor over the Internet. They send me a letter once a month with blood curdling threats about what they are going to do to me all over the envelope; inside, on the second page, a mention that I do not need a license if I do not watch it. They know that I do not watch TV - I told the man who came to visit some 4 years ago. I find what they are doing threatening, if I were to do the same to someone who used to be a customer I suspect that I would be visited by the police.

users will be spied on by the Chinese government. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
a good data protection law. Something like the EU's GDPR.
One problem with fans is that they get clogged with dust which makes them not work as well. Once a year I use an air blaster to blow dust out of the inside of my PC; one problem with that is that it can push dust into fan bearings - which is not good. I assume that this will attract just as much dust but, not having rotating bearings, will not suffer when I use an air blaster.
Can anyone enlighten me ?
Who should be prosecuted: the Amazon execs who signed this off or the city mayor - or both ?
