UK TV License required for broadband BBC broadcasts?

Filed under: General,rants,technology,workfriendly — savaged @ 20:27

The Evening Standard newspaper reported today that TV Licensing was going to fine those that receive broadband coverage of the World Cup. I've contacted TV Licensing to see if they will confirm or deny this?

I personally do not own any TV equipment, however I do have a PC with broadband. I was planning to watch the FIFA World Cup via the BBC web-site and therefore need to have this point clear so that I am not liable to any fine.

I have carefully checked the TV Licensing web-site along with the BBC sports and news web-sites and can find no written requirement for a TV License in order to use the broadband video coverage of the World Cup or any other broadcast.

I feel it would be very unfair to fine me or anyone else without some notice of the requirement to own a TV License for broadband broadcasts. I can only assume that The Evening Standard reported this incorrectly.

The Evening Standard stated that fines of £1000 would be brought against companies that allowed their staff to watch the broadband broadcasts. If true then this would mean that many offices will be effected, perhaps including the place where I work.

However, without the written requirement appearing somewhere other than in a newspaper report I can't see how any fine by TV Licensing would stand up in court.

quotation for the open mind

Filed under: *,General,rants — savaged @ 13:16

I love reading quotes from my RSS feed from http://www.quotationspage.com/qotd.html 

One that I found today was particularly profound IMHO.

It is from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe the German dramatist, novelist, poet & scientist.

He said,

"The intelligent man finds almost everything ridiculous, the sensible man hardly anything."
