– How do authorities check if you’re watching TV without a licence in the UK?
In: Technology
There’s little more to it than having a database of addresses that don’t have a TV license. They can then send someone round to have a look in and see if you’re watching TV.
TV Licensing claim that they have detection equipment that can detect if your watching TV illegally. I would be genuinely astonished if that were true. They may well have equipment that can detect a tv that’s switched on, but proving the precise location of the TV, and that it’s not being used to watch a dvd, I would think is close to impossible.
