> collect money from UK citizens
This is quite obviously incorrect. I am a UK citizen, but live in the US. No company needs a UK presence to collect money from me.

- jen20 1y agoIndeed, I also believe that to be the case but went with the trivial counterexample! Probably best to be explicit though.
- vintermann 1y agoIt may become an issue if you expect the British government to help you collect your debts, retrieve your stolen property, enforce your contacts etc. I'm all in favor of governments restricting how the it citizens can make money, or how you can make money on their citizens. But we're clearly far beyond that here.
