Here in the good old USA the police departments use the 'StingRay' machine for cell trafic. I have renamed my two modem/routers "StingRay 16" and "Stingray 32" I just wonder who will knock on my door??
In a few places in the U.S. (the Yosemite valley) relay transmitters have been installed so people not able to "see" TV transmitters can receive all channels. This has been in place in England for decades. I live in a canyon in Hollywood, but have available two cable carriers. I can't afford them (retired). Ironically, I worked in TV and Film for decades! I will be one of the first to use Aereo.
In earlier days the recording companies were very scared of people using the "new" audiocasette format to record album music. They got a tax levied on ALL blank audiocassette tapes. That tax still exists today! I don't think anybody knows of it.
