The Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit (PIPCU) has been working with internet service providers (ISPs) to crack down on illegal streaming of football matches

Football fans who use their Amazon Fire TV Stick devices to illegally stream Premier League games have been warned that they could face fines of up to £50,000 as home raids become 'inevitable' in a new crackdown on illegal streaming. The Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit and other UK authorities are intensifying their efforts to combat this crime.

The legislation has provided UK law enforcement with more robust tools to aggressively pursue and prosecute those involved in digital piracy. In the UK, illegal streaming is an offence under copyright law.
