My boss turned this up on a routine vanity search for our company name (Aardvark Media), and immediately ordered a couple of the posters, from of all this, a Tea room in St Leonards-on-Sea.

I'll just restate this: free/cheap public connectivity is far more important to Britain's future prosperity than the existing business models of the content industry are, and cases like this endanger that connectivity.
