It's not zero sum.

"Some 74 per cent of the 114,000 convictions for licence fee dodging in 2019 were for women" https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/decriminalis...

TV licence prosecutions are more than 1 in 10 UK court cases https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/tvandradio/bbc/10256679/...

So hundreds of thousands of people a year are being criminally prosecuted and convicted in service of this funding model, at the tax payer's expense.

We wouldn't stand for this for any other media organisation because it's fundamentally wrong. No amount of PR puff about the BBC changes that.
