With UK authorities cracking down on people who stream TV illegally in high profile raids on illegal operations, here's everything you need to know about the fines.
Amazon Fire TV Stick users are being warned of a potential £50,000 fine as a major crackdown on illegal streaming is underway, with home raids becoming 'inevitable'. A concerted effort has been launched to tackle those who stream TV unlawfully, with high-profile raids on illicit operations already taking place.
Offenders can face hefty fines and imprisonment, with sentences up to ten years. Individuals found distributing illegal streams have faced fines exceeding £50,000. Sports analyst Alex Hemming from Free Bets Ireland issued a stark warning saying: "The risks associated with illegal streaming of sports in the UK are significant and multifaceted. The potential for hefty fines, criminal prosecution, and personal data compromise makes illegal streaming a risky endeavour.
It's a lucrative market, but it hasn't escaped the attention of law enforcement. UK police have recently conducted a widespread crackdown on sellers, with raids carried out nationwide. The operation resulted in one arrest and interviews under caution for a further 10 individuals.
