They don't treat it like a voluntary license, they constantly harass people that don't pay. Assuming you're always guilty if you don't have one.
Yeah definitely. I remember the fake "Detector Vans" designed to frighten people but I suspect going forward with more and more younger people only using Netflix/Amazon Prime etc their attitude will have to change.
They tell you to notify them if you don't need a license, but it changes fuck all, you still get letters every couple of months that get increasingly more threatening. It's so dumb.
