Sky don’t fuck around.
Worked in a call center for them before. They had hired an ex psni officer with connections as a compliance officer who would occasionally be in the office. His job at one point was to go around brothels to find proof of fraudulent pay per view use (30 boxes to a house over a few years, all stolen cards)

I dont know why people dont just sail rhe seven seas (and no, I’m not encouraging or suggesting this!)
Some dodgy boxes offer a vpn service so won’t be able to be found
I can afford LOITV, My TV Licence & Saorview. Anything else im sailing the seven seas 🏴☠️
