The good ole "computers as cars" metaphor.  In the UK:

1) In order to drive a car, you have to have a license.

2) In order to have the car on the road, you have to have it taxed and 
have a qualified mechanic certify it for basic road worthiness.

Neither of these rules currently apply to computers.  Maybe they
should.

I've been considering lobbying for the imposition of an Internet license
for years now.  I could think of a few people that need theirs yanked.
