ALEX – another youtuber regarding TV licensing is saying that you DO NEED A TV LICENSE to watch you live on weds and sundays. Can you clear this up please?
The issue is specifically any 'Live TV' broadcasts shown on any platform – note 'TV'. This includes BT Sport (as although you may pay for it separately, any LIVE matches broadcast on the service require a TV Licence whether watched on a phone, tablet, TV or Internet). Then there is the Sky TV LIVE channel on Youtube. Here I'm talking about the LIVE streams – that is the same content being shown on Youtube that is also simultaneously being shown on Sky TV. – which you can't watch without a TV Licence. However, this does not include previously broadcast clips or snippets that were previously broadcast LIVE that are now being watched later ON DEMAND.
You can't also watch any other TV station showing a LIVE broadcast – let's take people with a ROKU box and for example the PLUTO channel. This channel has 2 services 'LIVE' and 'ON DEMAND', so here, the first thing to do is select 'ON DEMAND' so you do not inadvertently watch a LIVE broadcast.
As for Youtube, anyone streaming their own LIVE content that is not from a TV Broadcasting Company like BBC, ITV, BT, SKY, Channel 4, 5 or more importantly, any overseas TV company showing Live content. etc. should be free to do so – and that is my understanding. It is THIS last paragraph that needs clarification and definitive confirmation that I hope Alex will 'extract' from the weasels.
I was told at PC world when having looked on the licensing website that you do need a license to watch you tube , even on your computer , very confusing
Excellent news and thanks for the update. The BBC still have it on their website however, that you do need a licence for live streamed content, as according to the vile BBC YouTube is classed as TV! Wankers.
Alex, mate, after you've destroyed the BBC how do you feel about being Australian Prime Minister for a few years? If you promise to destroy the ABC we'll even let you telecommute!
If there was no bbc the government would really struggle to get their agenda across to the sheep. People might start to wake up if they resort to alternative media.
YOU DONT HAVE TO PAY FOR A LICENSE TO WATCH A TV THEY ARE CORPORATIONS B.B.C STANDS FOR BRITISH BROADCASTING CORPORATION YOU DO NOT HAVE TO GIVE ANY MONEY TO CORPORATIONS
I've not watched live TV in nearly 30yrs. I get a threatening letter every few weeks. I scribble out my address, write 'return to sender' on the front and put it on the pile. When I have a fistful, I will post them back. It costs crapita more to receive it back…. f**k 'em!
They alleged you need a licence to receive live broadcast. Well i only know of the news that is live. Everything else is pre-recorded. So how can it be live broadcasting??
demanding money to which you are not legally entitled to is fraud and a judge can award 3 times the amount in damages(whatever they call it) as punishment. as it is a person at your front door, not a company that person can be accused of fraud personally. it is up to that person to make sure they are operating legally.
Maybe someone could get a grant from the government to make a claymation short about obese thugs shaking down old people for money to use the internet.
If the bbc, ITV etc broadcast live on YouTube, you need a license to watch it. If you don’t watch it then no license required. If a person broadcasts (streams) live, no license is required.
Are we in a democratic country or in communist cage

So, what was the outcome? Because currently they're saying you are breaking the law if you watch live YouTube…

In Denmark you DO need the TV License to watch online things on the internet.

Are the remaining TV licence holders in fact share holders in the BBC in rules going back to when BBC was created.
Lies lies lies. BBC are just doing what the left do tell lies. No more BBC tv taxation. End BBC.
Get over it BBC and move on. You are beating a dead horse

Don't pay and send the creeps away.
Did you get to Downing Street/Ofcom then?
I refuse to but a tv license.

Go for it Chunky!!!
We need to form licence protection bubbles, Protect our elderly from the bullies.
We know that they are using Covid as an excuse so we don't talk to each other.🤔 Muzzled people are easier to control, so say the globalist.
Trump won 🏆.
China lied and people died 😐

SORT THEM OUT ALEX.
Glad that you've taken action to spread the truth about this issue.
Fraud? Marketing laws?
Modern day highwaymen. Pure s..t.
I hate bbc but they must have badly pissed off the voice of unreason.He seems a bit obssessed by them.
The BBC is the most evil, immoral, anti Christian, anti white , anti British
and anti old people the world has ever seen.
Why would you want to pay for propaganda anyway?
Thanks. Keep it up. Be careful. Stay safe.
Thank you for doing this. !
You sound surprised that the bbc lie ???
Fraud and or demanding money with menace I believe it is called in law.
Go for it Alex, get them by the short and curlies and pull as hard as you can. They need to be stopped, the lying toads.
demanding money to which you are not legally entitled to is fraud and a judge can award 3 times the amount in damages(whatever they call it) as punishment.
as it is a person at your front door, not a company that person can be accused of fraud personally. it is up to that person to make sure they are operating legally.

I don't want there BBC crap entering my aerial . Can I sue them for contamination of my TV with there biased programs ?
Can I look out of the front window or do I need a licence . ? They are Disgusting Alex . Where Boris Johnson , we need this stopping . Bloody BBC scum
Well I have to pay an internet provider to get onto the net or you tube or streaming services such as amazon, netflex
This has been gone through before you need a license for a receiver
The BBC used to be something really good and decent but unfortunately it's been infected with the WOKE cancer and is getting worse by the day
Love it . Get rid of the TV tax .
