@The_Picard_Maneuver@piefed.world I was just talking about this with a friend; there are so many that it seems inevitable to get caught up -- if pursued.

The world makes more sense when you learn that laws are just the attempted formalization of customs and norms. At best, an attempt to steer those norms. Customs have always prevailed over laws. Our efforts to be a world of laws peaked in the 80s and 90s, I think, and now we're going back the other way.

On top of this, there are norms that are in a way part of the law (as in: if you ignore them, you are liable), and they are commercial, so you have to pay through the nose for them.
