    The cattle has to be kept as livestock!
    I imagine all those high street shops deserted or refurbished as digital-bars
    I mean retailers are a big sector!

    Lyric8 someone lied to you.

    At very worse they can limit your bandwidth, and after 6 strikes there is no further legal action that can take. Basically you get warned, for the first 3-4 times, after that they limit your bandwidth after that nothing.

    There are no fines, and they can't "Cut" your internet off.

    The new laws here are just scare tactics with the worst consequence of a slower net.
