State-funded media, people.

Defund the BBC. Don't fund pedophiles. The BBC knew it was covering for pedophiles for decades and did it anyway.
declaring you don't need a license doesn't stop the letters
but the letters are pointless anyway, in 10 years of just not paying my tv license, i have had a visit precisely once
i told him to piss off and he did :vivian-shrug:

not sure if you're serious, but the UK rarely actually does anything (because doing something costs money), and this attitude extends throughout UK culture. There are no tracking vans, instead in accordance with the UK practice of saying they do something being equivalent to actually doing it, the BBC pretends there are tracking vans, which has the effect of making people scared and paying for the BBC licence racket.
the same approach is why 'nudge theory' is a thing, in fact a whole academic field in the UK. And why you can generally ignore solicitors. We have a lot of cctv but most of it isn't connected, monitored, or functional. The UK is basically run on empty rhetoric, which extends to almost every part of UK life. For example, they talk as if they have an army but don't actually have one.
This 100%, in practice the rules for how tv licencing is violated are incredibly dumb and impossible to "track" for. For example, if you don't pay for the TV licence, even if you don't have cable or a TV in your house, if you watch Youtube on your phone or tablet using the internet subscription you pay for, you can be violating the rules if you are watching something that is being broadcast on cable "at the same time" (this accounting for delayed feeds). So yes, you would need a TV licence if you have nothing but an internet subscription and watch SkyTV (which also broadcasts live on Youtube) on your phone.
Very theoretically, if your favourite streamer gets a live segment on a show one time, you are violating TV Licencing for watching them on Twitch that one time if you're not paying for it, etc.
the only way the UK will get those licensing fees is gonna be when they legalize bounty hunting for the BBC only
the only people willing to put that law on the books are in the process of cutting tv licencing away anyway so you know "issuing a correction on one of my previous posts" etc, etc
