Once they start there will be no end. In no time you will have to prompt your peers for permission before adding them to peers.dat.. put a big warning sign saying THIS IS NOT MONEY on any physical bitcoins.. register all your addresses with the ECB.. their imagination has no end. They even regulate how deep your tractor is allowed to make tracks on your own farmland.
eu even regulated to what degree a banana has to bend to sell it as that. (no joke!)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commission_Regulation_%28EC%29_No_2257/94
(ok it's not the bending per se)that's what you get for readings news without doing own research.
but still a lot of of these regulations are ridiculous and many biological farmers can't sell their whole crop but just the amount that fits to those partly exaggerated standards.
Not interested in nitpicking, just thought I'd post a wikipedia link rather than the EU regulation.
