       It's funny living in the UK.Every now and then I have to go to a private company's website to make a declaration that I don't use a washing machine.This private company works on behalf of a single appliance manufacturer, but they say I can't use a rival's tumble dryer without paying for their washer/dryer combo as well.... or they'll send someone round to my door to deliver a bunch of threats.They can do this because they keep a massive database of my personally identifiable information.

       @penguin42 I may be using "washing machine" as a placeholder for TV in this instance.

       @moopet Oh, you mean TV license?  The rules on it are very ...odd.
