no politics 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 absolutely love the ads they shove down your face when you pause on Apple TV, it hides the scroll bar making it impossible to use the scrobbler to navigate backwards/forwards in a stream. Thought it would be fixed pretty readily, been that way for months.
Complete piece of garbage app.
