I figured I would post this here since there's a wide variety of people who view these forums and I might get a better understanding (and it may help others too).
Someone is trying to sell my a jailbroken Firestick and they claim I will be able to watch cable TV and NFL Package (cable sub fee) and PayPerViews (per view fee) without actually purchasing them.
Now, while I know that jailbreaking your own properly is fine (phones were a big deal until last year I believe, when it was ruled that you can do this to your phone if you own it, and the Firestick itself would be yours), what you do with it after may not fall into legal territory.
Their claim is that it is legal to stream and that's what the Firestick does, but I kinda feel like it goes against the rules of the services themselves, like how PPVs always have the illegal distribution and viewership warnings and such.
Seems shady to me, but I don't know enough to go on.
So, that being said, is it legal to use a jailbroken Firestick to watch things like cable TV, PPV, and other services that typically require payment, but not actually pay for them?
If you have links to legit info, please provide them.
My googling hasn't turned up much.
