I don't give a shit which law is being broken (but I would take an uneducated guess that it is Copywright Law) ... I am merely trying to provide evidence that watching illegal streams is illegal as well as providing illegal streams.
But this link seems to confirm it is Copywright Law, and says "people who simply watch pirate streams break UK law. If the content comes from an illegal source, it’s illegal to consume it under copyright law. That is a fact – there is no debate." It also says "The Federation Against Copyright Theft, which acts for the Premier League, SKY, and BT Sport, came up with a solution – Section 11 of the Fraud Act 2006, which criminalizes the act of obtaining any kind of service dishonestly." So there's a couple of choices for you. https://torrentfreak.com/watching-pirate...0isolation. It's worth reading down that link to the bit about the lawyer Ari Alibhai who conducts successful prosecutons on behalf of Sky etc., and he concludes "In theory you can be prosecuted for watching unlawful television. You can be prosecuted under the Copyright Act under section 297 (I think, I haven’t used it for a long time), but you can also be prosecuted under section 11 of the Fraud Act (obtaining services dishonestly). In fact, in the explanatory notes [of section 11] mention is made of illegal television viewing boxes being part-and-parcel of section 11. Section 11 carries a maximum penalty of five years in imprisonment so, you know, in theory you face imprisonment if you watch TV illegally. In practice, the idea of someone being prosecuted who isn’t also concerned in the trade, so they aren’t also concerned in supplying illicit television services, is minimal. So he agrees with us both that the chances of prosecution are minimal, but leaves no doubt that it is illegal. I'm guessing there are few people more expert in the field than him. (other than you, apparently).

the copyright comment reminds me of Match of the Day, Jimmy Hill being sent copies of photos that a viewer took of matches on screen.
He showed some followed by a gentle reminder of the meaning of the @ (copyright version) at the bottom of every broadcast. |
