kinoger.com – German streaming portal?
Film and series fans are always on the lookout for free series streams and film streams. German platforms are booming, even if judicial bans on them are becoming more and more common. Some of the popular portals for this – such as kinox.to or streamkiste tv – were actually completely blocked some time ago. One portal that, interestingly enough, can still be accessed without any problems is KinoGer. But on KinoGer.com you can also find the latest movies & Co. Can that be legal?
We answer your most important questions in the following article:
- Is KinoGer illegal?
- Can you be held liable as a user of KinoGer Streamen?
- How do you protect yourself from warnings?
Error message at kinox.to & Co – but not at KinoGer.com
Stream the latest series or the blockbuster that has just been released for free instead of paying for it. Sounds good. And it was actually always quite easy to do. But if you now go to kinox.to or some other such streaming portals with free series streams and film streams, you will now get an error message. Because the providers had to block these portals so that users from Germany, but also Austria, no longer have access.
ECJ ruling says: Streaming services can be illegal!
Why this? Quite simply: If a streaming service like KinoGer shows the latest films and has not acquired them from the author, this is not legal. According to a ruling by the European Court of Justice in 2017, the portals can also be prosecuted for this crime. For this reason, internet providers block dubious streaming services such as kinox.to, streamkiste.tv, Movies123, streamcloud.me, serienstream .to etc.
Is KinoGer a legal streaming service?
KinoGer.com is also such a streaming service. However, one that has not (yet) been blocked. Films like “Sonic: The Hedgehog”, “The Gentlemen” or “Birds of Prey” are waiting for KinoGer, which are currently being shown in the cinema or have just been shown. Of course, KinoGer.com also offers older films and series. But the fact that you can stream new blockbusters here should make you wary.
As a KinoGer user, you can also be held liable
Because the ECJ ruling from 2017 also states that users who obviously use illegal streams can also be made liable. And every user should be aware that KinoGer cannot legally trade a free film like “Birds of Prey”. That is also how the court sees it. With alleged ignorance you are not making any points here. If you are researched via Internet provider, it says: warning and pay. Several hundred euros can then be gone.
Protect yourself from warnings with a VPN!
Do you still want to use KinoGer.com? Of course, that is your decision alone. But if you decide to stream with KinoGer, then protect yourself and your identity (and save your wallet from expensive warnings). A reliable VPN that values the anonymity of its users will help you: As soon as you are connected to a VPN server, your actual IP address is concealed and the data you send and receive is encrypted. Nobody knows who you are and what you are doing. As already mentioned, the prerequisite is that you choose a VPN provider who does not keep log files and takes other protective measures.
Legal – paid – alternatives to KinoGer
Of course, you play it safe with a paid streaming service instead of using KinoGer.com. These are, for example, Netflix, Amazon Prime or Sky. A little tip: A VPN not only helps you with KinoGer.com, but also with paid streaming services. Because these don’t work always and everywhere when you are on the go.
