reminds me of a general pattern I've observed in life:
1. whatever interface you expose to the public, some will abuse it
2. rules/laws/countermeasures are then added and enforced, often universally (though sometimes inconsistently)
3. which then bites, annoys, insults or otherise burdens or adds to the prices paid by ALL the OTHER non-abusing users pf that same interface
always. eventually. every time
