I would just like some clarification. If an Android box is used with Kodi, are all items in the Kodi repository legal to use? I know that third parties are not. YouTube is okay too, isn`t it? What about Netflix? This is all a bit confusing. If you`re Canadian, you may be wondering why Android boxes are illegal in Canada. In some jurisdictions, receiving a feed is legal. For example, if you stream YouTube videos or Netflix shows, you`re not breaking the law. But in Canada, copyright law targets illegal streaming, and that law applies to both unauthorized and legal streaming.

But now I`m here that they may not be legal in Canada and if I buy one, I could run the risk of it being cut. CBC News has called on the federal government to look into the legality of streaming. Hello Charles, In your article you say: « Update 3: Out of 4. In April 2017, Amazon officially banned the sale of Android TV boxes on its website. Amazon has even threatened to block the accounts of anyone who tries to sell « fully loaded » Android TV boxes. Out of curiosity, I went to Amazon`s website and searched for « Android TV Box. » To my surprise, thousands of results have surfaced. If they banned the TV box, why are they still selling it?
