Illegal broadcasting of soccer matches as an alternative to Rojadirecta grows on Facebook

As you well know, Facebook has promoted with great fanfare the broadcast of video in the most rigorous of the direct ones in recent months. This has led us to curious cases such as the rapes, humiliations and crimes that have been broadcast in the most rigorous of the direct ones. However, it is also being used for good things, for example the Spanish programming channel GOL has offered several matches of the Copa de HM the King of Spain through Facebook and plans to do the same with the final.

But… What if Facebook Live Video is used to illegally broadcast football matches?

This is the question that has an easy solution, for now absolutely nothing happens. Behind a series of profiles that seem to be a regular news channel, since they are dedicated to creating and sharing opinion articles and rigorous news from the world of football. However, there is behind an important team of people who try to create new Facebook profiles to which these first profiles try to link shortly before the broadcast of a Santander League match.

This is how these secondary channels have a life that lasts more or less as long as the game lasts, since after the broadcast they delete the channel and all related content, while the matrix, the main channel, continues to camouflage itself between news and the obvious. is. Nonetheless, the LFP bodies are aware of this type of practice, but Facebook has not enabled any type of content regulator to quickly prevent broadcasting of content protected by broadcasting rights and copyright. It is as easy as if you decide to put a camera focusing on your television while you watch the match of the day, and you dedicate yourself to broadcasting live.

This is the new phenomenon that has emerged after the cessation of Rojadirecta's activity, with Facebook channels such as that of Football Captains, where you can follow the broadcast.
