Around half a million households in the UK could find themselves unable to watch premium TV after a recent block.
It comes as UK police have shut down several providers who were illegally streaming content that viewers would typically have to pay for. As reported by The Mirror, police operations spread across the UK saw four people arrested and the seizure of laptops and phones.
That means viewers who use illegal third-party services to access Sky content - without paying for the service - could see their viewing cut off. What's more, officials say illegal streaming services make users vulnerable to data theft, fraud and malware.
