A forbidden practice banned a whole decade ago is living its best life in defiance, much to the authorities' chagrin. Despite an official put-out-the-fire mission kicking off 10 long years ago, culprits remain committed party crashers, proving laws have the durability of wet tissue paper. Authorities struggle, fumbling like toddlers with modern tech, trying every clamp-down gimmick, but the activity behaves like a fever dream with no off-switch. If persistence was a sport, these rule-breakers would have Olympic gold by now. Where's the grand crackdown headquarters? Spoiler: still under construction or lost in a bureaucratic Bermuda Triangle.
