Dear TV Licencing,
Thank you so much for your letter of December 13th letting me know that a TV Licencing Officer will shortly be coming round to inspect my home.Thank you also for the reminders about the various penalties etc.
I guess you think you need to make sure that I’m not stealing ‘live television’ but I can assure you that I am not. In my opinion live TV just rots peoples’ minds and as shown in research by Dr Aric Sigman can actually cause brain damage.
Meanwhile I understand that you have absolutely no right to enter my home, so portraying yourself as some kind of authority with ‘officers’ and such like seems to be nothing more than empty menace. Perhaps if I did watch your live signal I would be more susceptable to such posturing.
As I would like to help you protect your live signal without having to resort to such methods may I suggest coding it and having people rent decoders. I think you must agree that this would be a far more civilised way to go about things as you wouldn’t have to bandy around your empty threats and people would be more aware that they have a CHOICE in the matter. Additionally it would open the door to FAIR COMPETITION, though I wonder if you’re afraid that that would have a negative effect on your revenues.
Anyway, if you or one of your representatives would like to discuss any of the issues I’ve raised, then please feel free to post a reply below.
Yours sincerely,
Nigel Davies
