Re: Watch UK TV for free please
And I don't understand the paranoia. Whilst the websites to sign up for such accounts might be blocked the actual service is unlikely to be. ExpressVPN works in China and I would suggest they might be more aggressive at trying to prevent such use than any ME agency. In truth I just can't comprehend even the slightest suggestion that "anyone" might be "looking". Unless there is some sort of evidence to support the fact I'd suggest that any correlation between a mention on BE and a service becoming blocked is what the real world terms, a coincidence.

not sure what your point is scot47
nowadays, the BBC won't allow you to watch it in Saudi even if you do pay for it.

My point was that you should not expect to get these services for nothing. It reminds me of my colleagues in Saudi who used to purloin tea-bags and toilet paper from work to save a few Riyals.

But not everyone wants something for nothing. Some would happily pay to watch BBC TV programmes, either by streaming or on iPlayer, but rather than setting up a system where this is possible they continue to spend miney and their efforts in blocking those who use other methods to do so.

I went by the title of the thread "Watch UK TV for free". Frreloaders and "The Fraternity of 500" are everywhere (The Fraternity was a legendary and probably imaginary group in Saudi Arabia who swore to live on 500 Saudi Riyals a month to maximise their savings)
500 Saudi Riyals is approximately US$130

But since paying legitimately is not on option, there are only two other options - paying non legitimately or not paying . Since paying non legitimately involves giving money to people (sometimes) breaking the rules, some are willing to not pay because that's the lesser of two evils and the only way while denied paying legitimately.
The BBC is living in the past. The music recording industry used to behave in the same way but now they accept the world has changed and they act accordingly. It's time the BBC did too.
I've just checked and the free Beebs add-on still works for BBC iPlayer - at least from Canada. Beebs is a Chrome add-on but you can also get it via the Opera browser. I have Opera as a secondary browser solely for this purpose...but finding good quality alternative streams, including BBC shows, is not that difficult anyway.

If you like to binge watch tv series you can try eztv.ag. It provides magnet links to hundreds of series, most of the better ones never get to UK tv so far as I am aware, think Westworld, Altered Carbon, The Last Ship, Ozark. You need a torrent downloader, Azureus/Vuze/Bitly, but once set up up just click the link and wait. I typically get a 400MB file in not more than 15-20 minutes and sometimes an entire 10 episode series in an hour or so. It's just so trivial and the shows appear as tv series automagically in my Plex server without any intervention to be watched anytime on any device on my network and remotely if the bandwidth can support it.
I think real time TV, with the exception of the news, is a habit a lot people have broken. So all real time streaming services need for many folk is news, current affairs and local information.

What I find funny is most people who use them find them via a quick google search - anyone wanting to close them down could just do the same thing.
Im also please the mystery was unravelled- I didn’t make the connection between espresso and expressVPN.

I don't imagine you care or get it wrong.
