I suppose there is the possibility that the UK decides to up their military spending by 15 to 20 times the current amount, so that they actually have teeth behind their currently impotent demands, but I would put my money on pigs evolving into a winged species first.
The UK has exactly zero leverage to enforce this with, and everyone running around claiming the sky is falling needs to calm the fuck down.
There is no disagreement, its only a difference of opinion on if "ignore it or ban the UK entirely" is the correct choice.
The feasibility isn't that they will actually do something in this regard. Its that you will get tired of them cluttering your inbox with useless nonsense, enough so that you might miss something in the spam. Or simply get tired of seeing them.
The UK doesn't have a right to the internet and whatever freedom still remains on it. If they want to be trying to act like big dogs, everyone has the right to hit them back with real consequences to their barking instead of just letting them cry in your ear endlessly.
