Is it illegal to stream content using Kodi?
I haven't got one myself, but someone I know has just bought one. I
have read that it's illegal to sell boxes preloaded with Kodi but that
the streaming is more of a grey area, although no doubt the law will be
altered to make it illegal once the pay TV boys lose a certain amount of
revenue, as I'm sure they will. I joined a local facebook group a few
weeks ago, and often see posts about it.
It reminds me of the banks charging fiasco. Claiming back charges was
the norm and accepted by the banks until it snowballed and then the
banks tested the law and eventually won their case.
