      I…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.

        Nothing anyone loves more then not being able to do what they want on their own property they probably spent most of their lives working for

        But yes, freedom and liberty are quite clearly “childish” concepts in your underdeveloped brain

          Yeah, go on, insult me. Great argument ^^

          You know the rules that apply on the property. By breaking them, you are performing concious action, knowing what consequences may it yield. Do not be pissed when these consequences come. Sheesh.

            Where’s the limit on acceptable surveillance on your own property?

            Should the state be able to check for unlicensed structures by drone?

            What about sending investigators into your backyard? Into your house?

            Just because people break rules doesn’t give the state the right to inspect their citizens any way they please.

              From what I recall, your property ends where airspace begins so…yes? Same as Mark, your neighbour. He, too, can get a drone and watch your backyard. Now inside of building is somewhat private ( IIRC windows this privacy legally ).

              And also - how else do you propose for state to be able to enforce their code and licenses? You agree to their terms when you get the property. How do they make sure you actually follow them?

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

              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.

                  There’s simply no reasonable way for just a shed without the accidental pyrotechnics can bring enough risk of harm to your neighbors

                  Unless, you know, it wasn’t built to code.

                  Building codes are exactly how we make sure that your property doesn’t pose a risk to other people’s property.

              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.

              Edit: also it’s not just you, it’s any meth head who decides to build their own shed. Laws need to cater for the lowest common denominator.
