Flashback to Sweden, around 2011 or so. Copyright owners convince the government to add a $/GB levy to digital storage mediums like USBs, just in case people would use it for storing copyrighted material. The kicker? Personally archiving copyrighted material to your personal storage is (was?) fully allowed by law, but somehow it went through anyways. Glad I don't live there anymore :)
