For many years it has been possible for anyone with a fast enough Internet connection to watch free live streams of sports from around the world. Most of these streams require the installation of Adobe Flash and will not work without it regardless of which operating system or browser is used.

The problem now is that in recent months Flash has been exposed as a serious security risk. It is so bad that in spite of numerous updates privacy and computer security advocates have recommended its removal from computers and other devices. Flash is not even available for devices that use iOS as Apple long ago recognised its weaknesses. Smart stream suppliers such as YouTube have responded by ensuring that their streams can be viewed without Flash. However the live sports stream providers are lagging behind as their streams still cannot be viewed without Flash.

Please provide names and links to free live sports streams that may be viewed without Flash (and without having to register and provide one’s life history to some betting scam). Thanks.

I just disable flash by default and then enable it temporarily for sites that require it. As long as the site is reputable, it's unlikely that they're going to hack your computer via flash.
