circumvention

NBA commissioner Adam Silver has called cap circumvention “a cardinal sin.”

He explained: "The president's circumvention of Congress' power of the purse has been left unchecked by the Supreme Court. Checks and balances must be maintained."

The White House said ending the duty-free exemption would combat "escalating deceptive shipping practices, illegal material, and duty circumvention", claiming some shippers had "abused" the exemption to send illicit drugs into the US.

This structure could potentially allow circumvention of Congress’s constitutional authority over government spending and create opportunities for behind-closed-doors management without proper oversight.

Some have also criticised the effectiveness of Ofcom's implementation of UK age check requirements, and their potential circumvention using virtual private networks.
