My mistake -- thanks for the clarification.

Probably in the future, it will be necessary to buy a government issued
licence to legally operate an SMTP server which "broadcasts/receives"
to/from the Internet   ;)

This will be a source of revenue and provide a legal reason for
the SMTP licence agents (run by a private company) to visit suspected
terrorists and those critical of the ruling party.

After all if one is required to purchase a licence to receive live video
or transmit over the public airwaves, why not a licence to receive or
transmit over the public Internet?
