That requires encryption. And the BBC cannot do that as it does not own the Freeview masts.

@R5EHOLE @Brimstones1234 @BBCNews Cool. So you've cancelled kids TV, Forces TV, Freeview now has a 1/3 funding problem. All of the local dialect programming has gone and the content is now created for profit so any events which are in the public interest are pay for view. Doesn't sound like a good model.

@fouldsy147 @Eurosport_UK Because the BBC has decided broadcasting educational programmes for locked down children (who for whatever reason cannot access lessons online) is a higher priority than live snooker. BBC 4 is not available on Freeview until 7pm, but the snooker is live on iPlayer or Eurosport

@HjRobins @MaxCCurtis There used to have a few hundred homes they would survey, and extrapolate fron that. These days, digital TV boxes (Sky, Freesat, Virgin, some Freeview, etc, as well as streaming services send much more accurate data down the phone line about what you're watching.
