Summary this week: we explain to you how subscribing to pirate IPTV will become more and more risky, how Parisian bikers park for free via a trick, Enedis facing overcharging for ;#8217;electricity deemed illegal, and finally the second part of our feedback on Starlink.
Pirate IPTV services continue to be popular in France. For a derisory amount, these illegal services allow you to watch thousands of channels and packages – including the popular sports channels. But the tone is rising among the authorities. Several countries are therefore starting to target users, who have so far been relatively spared, via heavy dissuasive fines. Elsewhere, it is more a question of ordering search engines to dereference these sites. A situation that Arcom is observing carefully – because it could well be, if the use of pirate IPTV platforms does not decline, that France will ultimately also change its strategy.
Since 2022, Paris town hall has required motorcycles to pay for parking, like all other vehicles. A measure of equality some would say, but for those interested, it's another story… and we find a fairly staggering number of incivilities in this area. While police vehicles equipped with automated plate readers constantly check that all parked vehicles – including those of bikers – have done their parking well, two-wheeler drivers no longer hesitate to hide their license plates, despite the risks.
But what is happening at Enedis ? While customers receive electricity overbillings for periods sometimes well beyond the legal deadline of 14 months, the National Ombudsman accuses the energy distributor of illegal practices. All in a context where bill catch-ups have jumped 64% over the last 12 months. Unfortunately, in the absence of legal action, Enedis is most often deaf to the recommendations of the Mediator…
While sometimes quite contradictory information appears around Starlink, what to think of this new satellite ISP based on a constellation of hitherto unprecedented density? Our editor-in-chief Romain Vitt has decided to test Starlink, and tell us everything in three episodes – before, during and after. We invite you to read the second part of his feedback in which he looks back on two months of daily life with the service.
