This is the most idiotic thing I've ever seen in my life. How stupid do you have to be to even consider this as a good idea. Like, be prepared from everything the government that passes this ever does to be leaked.

Yeah and then they say "It is what it isssss" and punished the company for the governments fault. UK = Iran 0.5 ??? Just death by 1000 cuts. It will be a dark future for us.
