Now TV in the Channel islands - not alowed under broadcasting rights regulations

If you are trying to watch Now TV in the Chanel islands, and/orthe Isle of man, Roku will activly block you, as wathcing Now TV and other UK catchup services in the Chanel islands/Isle of Man is prohibited under established broadcast rights.

 

See here https://forums.roku.com/viewforum.php?f=28

 

Are Roku wrong on this?

I was trying to assist someone setting up a Rou device, but Roku have told me in no uncertain terms that trying to circumvent rights restrictions, and allow people in the Channel islands/Isle of man is in breach of interntaional regualtions as these servces are not avialable outside the UK

It’s now 2020 and this still appears to be a problem with nowtv on the stick not working. I have purchased both a Roku plus stick and a now tv stick. Both won’t let me download/ operate the now tv act. 

 

Do do we have any updates on this?
