      Especially as some laws in some countries refer to such standards. This should be illegal, or at least the country should see to get a licence for it’s citizens.

      Well i assume they needed to fund the organization somehow, that pdf is probably full of info on how to achieve that standard. And since it’s PDF, goodluck paywalling ctrl + c > ctrl + v.
