    Somebody told me about this company that sell boxs that allow people to get free Sky TV on the internet they claim its "100% legal".

    Is this really legal ? it seems very dodgy to me.

    How can they offer Sky TV for free ?
    Our Smart TV Boxes: NEVER pay for Sky/BT again. Sick of only having Saorview? 1000′s of FREE Movies, Box sets, All Sky sports, BBC, Channel 4, Irish TV & hundreds more. Once off payment, no subscriptions, EVER!

    It's not legal. It's called cardsharing and cannot be discussed here.

    It's not card sharing and the boxes aren't illegal but the implied use of the box is illegal (and in reality way different than what you expect if comparing to flicking channels on UPC/Sky) so you should steer well clear of anyone advertising like this.

    OK, got it mixed up with cardsharing. Dodgy nonetheless.
