illegal straming of football
 

I know illegal streaming of live football matches happens but how on earth does the match get shown? Not sure I'm putting the question properly.

I know SKY, BBC or BT have cameras or access to cameras but what about the illegal streamers?

They just use whichever company's channel is playing the match live:shrug: Lots of other foreign stations use Sky or whatever feeds to show the games.:cool:

Much in the same way you can easily google to find a stream showing sky's live Formula 1 coverage. Not that i would ever dream of doing such a thing of course ;)

Yeah right ;);););)

Lets say a French company is televising live in France, a game being played in the UK. How does it get on the internet as an illegal stream?

It's a bit like this forum lets say, anyone in the world can read it as it's public access, so, the person(s) watching a football game makes his stream available via an apk or other platform, like Mobdro on android, so anyone knowing where to look can watch it. It's difficult to explain & I don't condone trying it;););););) Without a vpn at least:cool:

Back in the day I used to get live Glasgow rangers matches just by moving my satellite dish and picking up Norwegian stations which at the time were using a certain card to decode the streams, so all you had to do was input a certain code to get it all, as a side note you also got all the latest movies in a higher quality than sky was showing. now although I haven't looked into in a while, someone buys sky sports and then creates the same idea, and shares his sky with whoever buys it from him all you need is the code
