Out of curiosity: where do you live where listening on ham requires a license?
In the US and other countries I am aware of, listening is allowed without a license (how would one even enforce such a thing?). In fact, you can even transmit on a ham radio in the US without a license provided there is an immediate risk to life or property.

What if the “laws aren’t the same” remark was about “you can’t transmit without a permit”? Not about the “you need license to listen”?
Could be. I expect the commenter would clarify.
