Yea and when you legally stream them the mouse can legally kill you
Lmao they even have the pre-1800 British flag on their site.
They could steal your personal data without you knowing
This actually happened to me once. I illegally streamed a show and then this Italian guy Vinnie the Foot blasts through my screen. Nice guy. Asked for a towel, I made him an espresso, we watched movies and smoked cigars til sunrise.
Fuckin Vinnie. He stole my dad’s toupée my dad is still pissed about that.
Your dad looked ridiculous Vinnie did him a favor
You’re right, Vinnie has impeccable fashion sense. Hurts to hear the truth though.
OK this hilarious. Guess who owns this domain. It is Sky UK
Sky are a bunch of bastards.
They were bought by Comcast a number of years ago, so they’re actually worse than before if you can believe it.
Wonder how much of your personal data they have? 😆
Or how many times they’ve been hacked, or broke the law.
I have one of these on a billboard near my house. Every time I feel sad, I just look up to it as I’m passing by and it gives me a chuckle. I think they actually updated it recently. These posters are in the UK for anyone wondering. And this one in particular is in the London Underground.
I despise vandalism, but sometimes I feel an exception can be made
Remember kids: Torrents and Jellyfin are the only way.
I heartedly recommend Usenet. Bit more involved setting up than torrents but if you’re looking for fast and quality content then this is the way.
The website is run by Skynews, wich is not directly disclosed on the website, the privacy options button doesn’t work, it doesn’t have a cookie banner but does set a cookie (illegal in EU), it has a injection for Facebook, Instagram and YouTube, by doing all that, they are less compliant to GDPR than my fucking piracy site…
All in all it looks like a intern made a WordPress website, designwise ok, but regarding legality, functionality and content its at best for printing it on toilet paper.
They are actually less prone to big data theft… “they could steal your personal data without you know”…while the “legal” streaming sites are stealing orders of Magnitude more wich is pretty clear by the amount of data they transmit, a website has usually no access to your contact info, your entire hard drive, the contact info of everyone in your contacts, your microphone or your camera.
And being hacked left and right
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
So very ironic when it’s the opposite between them.
Legal stuff isn’t much better these days. Advertisements unless you pau more, user tracking regardless, etc.
Massive data collection and then getting hacked with no legal ramifications.
so i went to their website. For a site thats immediate branding is about how scary and dangerous hackers are, you’d think their news section would be full of fraud and ransomware stories. instead, their “latest news” is solely articles about people being arrested for using pirate streaming services or selling loaded firesticks.
The single exception to this is a “social experiment” they allegedly did where they put a QR code up at the tube marked as “free streaming for life” and had people put pii in to sign up. This entire “initative” is solely another way to harvest user data lmao.

It’s insane that this is even legal.
I feel like it isn’t? Like isn’t that just false advertising?
their “latest news” is solely articles about people being arrested for using pirate streaming services or selling loaded firesticks.
So just to be clear, the damage then is not from the actual piracy or due to any invasion from the source of the piracy, but rather 100% of the danger comes from the enforcement of piracy’s prohibition.
Yes, definitely sounds like piracy is the problem here 🙄
Don’t do illegal drugs, kids! You could get in trouble, because they’re illegal.
Yup! The fact that it is defined as “illegal” allows goons to storm your house and court troll to harrass you.
Thus everything they say is true, in some way…
And it’s not even illegal in the sense most people think of, it’s a copyright violation. Which is a regulatory thing, not a criminal law thing.
Given the cops can show up and harrass you in the UK it might be an actual criminal offence at this point over there.
people being arrested for using pirate streaming services
What circumstances does that even happen in? Like a bar that plays a pirated sports stream?
Theres firestick apps that stream all the regular channels, plus all the premium channels. (HBO, showtime, stars, ppv, etc) Essentially for $10 - $20 a month you get the best, most decked out cable package one could buy. You may or may not have access to all the new and old movies, TV shows (from all the platforms), and porn, on demand, as well. Maybe like that?
Gonna be honest I didn’t read the articles so I’m not entirely sure. I did see a headline about cops going to peoples houses to issue warnings so maybe isps are snitching?
I’d be skeptical that’s even real, outside of a select few countries with especially strict copyright enforcement
Not even in the US, which it seems leads the charge on enforcing copyright most of the time.
It’s the “your internet could be disabled” scare tactics.
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
Hah! Like the “legal” services are much better than that!
Hey now, the legal services tell you they’re stealing your data. It’s in section 9, subsection 14, paragraph 423 of the terms of service.
It’s 507 paragraphs long and written in a mix of German and Esperanto but yeah, it’s right there! Clear as day!
You don’t use the
