Audiences watching any live TV on the likes of YouTube or streaming platforms need a TV licence, but this is apparently not well known and not effectively enforced.

I hate this. What does it mean by live TV? Is that any live stream on YouTube? Or live shows published by the BBC. They make no attempt to clarify WTH you need a license for. I am not going to pay for a TV licence to watch someone in Australia live stream something that will never see a dime from it. Also YouTube and these other platforms have their own monitozation methods. Are they not collecting on that as well? What about people outside the UK that watch these shows through these platforms?

The whole thing is just a mess of confusion.

When 94% of people use the BBC each month yet fewer than 80% of households contribute,

How the hell did they get this 94%. Seems very high number. I know many people that just don't have a TV anymore.
