Comment on Insurance Company Flew a Drone to Take Photos of Man's House and Canceled His Policy
Demdaru@lemmy.world 11 months agoI…love the logic of “I broke the rules and they got to know? HOW DARE THEY”.
Like…this is so stupidly silly I can’t. Like a child getting pissed off it was found out.

Laws that prevent people from doing what they want on their own property when it doesn’t hurt anyone else are completely unjustifiable tools of oppression. Anything that helps the state enforce those laws is inherently bad.

Why do you think the rules exist in the first place. Because there is some hurt to somebody else. You just can’t see it.

Tell me more about how me building a shed for myself that nobody else ever even looks at causes harm to anyone.

An electrical fire that starts in your shed isn’t confined to your property by magic force fields. Your improperly installed wiring is a threat to the neighborhood.

If it’s not built to code to code it can pose all sorts of safety hazards to your neighbours or future owners of your property. If you don’t bother getting approval you didn’t bother building it properly either.
At the slightly more silly end, your shed could lower the value of the neighbours property (because it looks like a meth lab, or just a general hillbilly grotto) and the law holds financial harm higher than physical harm most of the time.
