I previously posted this in the MLB.TV blog. Reading the MLB.TV terms and conditions, we cannot "spoof" our location to avoid blacked-out games. Violation is a $100 fine and loss of account. Here's what worries me...depending on the location t-Mobile's chooses for me (varies from Philly to Pittsburgh to Atlanta), I get a different game blacked out. I technically violate the MLB.TV rules simply by rebooting my Askey gateway and getting a different location.
Any thoughts??
