'There is now more choice than ever for consumers and we encourage everyone to watch only via official providers as this does not only guarantee the best quality viewing, it guarantees that you’re not putting yourself and your family at risk of malware, inappropriate content and electrical safety risks. If you are accessing content in any way that does not remunerate the content provider, this is not a grey area: it is illegal. However, it is essential to remember that the only legal way of watching content is through the official providers. Kieron Sharp, CEO of FACT said “During these exceptional circumstances, it is completely understandable that the demand for content will increase. However, peer-to-peer networks and torrents have become synonymous with downloading copyright-protected material, including television shows from paid-for networks, like Sky Atlantic or Netflix, as well as Hollywood blockbusters. If you're sharing your own photo collection on torrents: that's fine since you own the copyright. Torrents are the map that plans out which bytes you'll be able to download from each person in the network. It’s important to remember that torrents themselves aren't illegal – these small files are simply a way of downloading content from a network of users across the world who already have the file and are willing to share.
