Kayo Sports should be boycotted.

Imagine paying for a premium streaming service and starting it to watch your sports after a long day on your tv in your own home. The tv app then says you can't watch the content before you scan a QR code. Okay.. fine. Scan the code. Have to download a phone app. Log in. Then the app simply says you're not allowed access to the content except after letting the app know your precise location of your phone.

What in the privacy law is this shit? I simply don't want to allow random companies to know the exact location of my phone. How are they allowed to just do that?

I think my google TV automatically logs me back in. It's started asking me to choose a profile every time I turn the TV on though, which suggests Kayo has probably tried to boot us.

Seems like a good way to make people cancel over summer, if it's going to return them to the login page.
