They know full well that they can't ensure total compliance, and that real life is complex. Their aim is to ensure people have been told, and to minimise the levels of dodging to the point where it has little impact. Frankly, if someone wants to watch the BBC TV output they should pay if they can. I am a keen supporter of the 'free' software, etc, movement. But the point there is that the authors, etc, *intend* the output to be free. Whereas the BBC relies on the Fee to pay for it's operations and generation of the content. However this is really OT, and old ground being reploughed...
