How is this legal, he asked

The good people at Thinkgeek have listed an HDTV antenna. This one is paper-thin and doesn't look like the DIY kluges found on instructive websites (you can guess the name of the site). So far, so good.Until I read the comments. One guy (20 years old apparently) asked, "Someone please tell me how this is legal."
 
I shook my head in disbelief, until I thought that I'd wager he's never seen TV that didn't get fed to him through a cable. Just like many people would have no clue on how to operate a dial phone (my 28 year old nephew pushed his fingers through each hole trying to operate an old dial phone I have at home).

How times and technology change...
