So, Minnesota would rather people not be able to advance themselves without the officiating organization paying a fee, first? Do libraries have to pay a fee to lend books? Do documentaries put together by universities have to pay a fee first?

My roommate is a IT Sys Admin and so has the house wifi locked down with 11 alpha-numeric characters, various capitals and something neither of us can ever remember without checking where it's written down.
When I worked in a secure facility we used a telephone keypad to write out a word or two.
