They were have a moral panic at the time about club drugs, notably speed and ecstasy. That's why the ad for Wipeout is a couple of clubbers with nosebleeds, they're supposed to be overdosing on speed. It's very clever edgy and pretty cool (to the music scene people that go clubbing and do drugs) advertising. A kind of creativity and level of marketers being extremely in-touch with current culture of the time that you don't see at the moment. The message being "Wipeout is an overdose of speed".

Autechre then released the completely legal song Flutter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdhtm6qjmhU

Flutter has been programmed in such a way that no bars contain identical beats and can therefore be played at 45 or 33 revolutions under the proposed law.

However we advise DJs to have a lawyer and musicologist present at all times to confirm the non-repetitive nature of the music in the event of police harrassment.

Oi, ave you got a loisence for them bars?

At least Their Law by The Prodigy and Pop Will Eat Itself came out of that, absolute banger.
