Camo like black and white pattern over the top of the broadcast.
I posted about this nearly two years ago, since then the colour has changed from a red pattern to a black and white pattern but the effect is still the same. This seriously ruins my enjoyment of sports on sky.
It's less obvious during the gameplay, but still there. I have tried on multiple different monitors and TVs. The image is being played from a custom gaming PC with R7 7800x3d, RX9070 XT.
I believe it to be purposefully put there by Sky as some sort of watermark. I would like confirmation of this, or a fix to remove it. I can get better quality stream from other sources.
My contract renewal with Sky is coming up, if this is not resolved to my satisfaction by the I will be cancelling and getting my football from elsewhere.

Re: Camo like black and white pattern over the top of the broadcast.
@ValdeFortis You're not contacting Sky by posting in here, Sky won't confirm whether or not there is any type of protection on their Sky Go streams (where you have posted) Is there a reason your using a PC rather than the correct hardware to watch TV?
Also threats to cancel won't get you any action.
If you're not using the correctly supplied TV equipment to watch Sky they cannot be hheld liable for using 3rd party equipment.
