incredibly disappointed that's not a pirate streaming site
Legal streams let something worse than criminals in. Lawful criminals.
Yea and when you legally stream the mouse can legally kill you
Clarification: The Mouse as in Disney Corporation not as in the thing you use to move your pointer.
"1 in 10 people believe they are not at risk when using illicit sources to watch TV, film or sports."
ONE in ten? Man, they're even bad at cherry picking statistics 😂
They even cite a study with only 1,000 participants for their statistic that "32% OF PEOPLE HAVE BEEN VICTIMS OF FRAUD"
In the title, at least. The body of that claim's card says that it's the people, or someone they know that have been victims of fraud.
Gosh, I hate dishonest scare marketing campaigns.
they could steal your personal data without you knowing
Is that supposed to be more intimidating than corporations stealing my personal data with or without me knowing?
More crime is committed in the making of media than in pirating it.
Also more wrongdoing against society and the public that the justice department couldn't be bothered with (so doesn't count as crime).
Pirate it all or don't watch it.

Been living by this for decades since I learned from my highschool computer science teacher that it was even possible. I'm 50 now and I have paid only twice for tv and movies in my adult life.
The only thing I'm at risk of is receiving a warning from my ISP :(
I'll get a VPN one day I promise
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
Hah! Like the "legal" services are much better than that!
Shoutout to Sony BMG putting rootkits in legally bought CDs.
You would be safer pirating.
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!
Who are they stealing my personal data from, corporation?? Are they stealing it from me or from you??
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.
They could steal your personal data without you knowing.
So very ironic when it's the opposite between them.
Lmao they even have the pre-1800 British flag on their site.
You should use legal streams that you pay for so you know they're stealing your personal data!
They could steal your personal data without you knowing
compared to legal sites stealing your personal data after telling you (it's buried among the 100+ pages TOS you agreed to)
Hey, don't point it out! People are blissfully ignorant of how much they are owned. Don't try to educate them.
does this mean if I pay for streaming my privacy will be respected
🤔
Huh, I didn't think emojis would be italicized. Interesting.
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.
people being arrested for using pirate streaming services
What circumstances does that even happen in? Like a bar that plays a pirated sports stream?
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 🙄
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.
Legal stuff isn't much better these days. Advertisements unless you pau more, user tracking regardless, etc.
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.
I went to their website just to have a laugh. This is some real shizo propaganda.
You could replace all of it with: Only watch self sourced pirated media! Paying and relying on any service has inherent risks
“1 in 3 (32%) people who illegally stream in the UK say they, or someone they know, have been a victim of fraud, scams, or identity theft as a result.”
320/1000 people know someone unlucky enough to fall for a scam.
This risk increases significantly when users exchange credit or debit card information to view content on unregulated and illicit websites.
If you pay for your pirated content you are doing it wrong.
Watching content via an illicit source can expose younger viewers to age-inappropriate content. These unauthorised websites, devices, apps, add-ons, and the content they can access have no parental controls.
My kids get a tablet exclusively pointing to a private media server in order to obtain the parental controls for-profit services just don’t provide. I banned YouTube kids, it was a shitfest.

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.
as opposed to the legal services where youre forced to hand it over along with paying exorbitant prices for a tiny catalogue
The C: prompt let's you know they mean business
