TMC is a broadcast of traffic information which usually uses an FM signal. These protectionist countries encrypt the data:

#Australia
#Finland
#Germany
#Italy
#Norway
#Sweden

That’s fucked up, is it not? Shouldn’t publicly funded information be open to the public? These countries provide unencrypted #TMC data:

Estonia
France
