Not many people know, but your standard British TV Licence actually functions as a "Televisual Letter of Marque".

The Letter of Marque permits you to legally seize televisual material from any other source in the name of the crown, as a state-sponsored privateer, rather than a common pirate.

At least, that was what I had been led to believe, officer. You'll have to take it up with TV Licencing. Nothing to do with me, officer.

I wasn't watching television, I was observing remote images!
God, bloody sheeple don't know their own natural law it seems.
