Interesting that last point, again it confirms my opinion that it's

too
soon
to be in use, this time because legal controls on use obviously aren't
working in some countries.


the laws do not even exist in some countries, and even if they are, the
funds do not exist to police them, and even if policed, all you get is a
peasant with no money, land worth nothing, and a large lawyers bill


Quite! My point exactly.

pay vast sums to the big companies?
