1. Using a VPN isn't illegal.

 

2. Paying for Hearts International isn't illegal.

 

The only thing that this is doing is circumventing the rule that clubs can't broadcast 3pm games in the UK on a Saturday, etc. That isn't a law.

Is the correct answer.

I'm looking forward to the huge increase in FoH contributions next month from all those that promised to put the £10 into FoH rather than pay for the PPVoption

You sound upset.

You are breaching someone else’s copyright so I would say it is illegal. However, no individual has ever been taken to court for it di I reckon you are safe.

You quoted my post without reading it Dave?

 

Which one of the 2 points is breaching anything?

Virtual Private Network.

 

It's a piece of software / app that sets up an encrypted tunnel between the client (you) and the server, which can be in various countries, making it look as if your IP address (where it thinks you are watching from) is outside of the UK.

 

If you start up the VPN, then choose a country to connect to a server (let's say Germany), then open your browser and log in to Hearts TV, you will automatically see the "International" option that let's you subscribe to watch the games. You need to start up the VPN every time you want to watch a game.

 

Using a VPN usually drops your broadband speed though, so trial & error which country to use to give you the best speeds.

 

Point your browser at fast.com or speedtest.net to see your speeds before & after the VPN is switched on.

Thanks for that mate.If I'm feeling adventurous I'll give it a bash.

Didn’t mean to quote your post to be honest. Thought I was quoting an earlier one from someone else. 🥴
