This policy shift could force millions of households to abandon traditional TV aerials and switch to broadband streaming to access their favorite channels. A consultation paper expected in the coming weeks will outline the government’s plans to phase out Freeview, which currently provides over 70 free-to-air standard channels and up to 15 HD channels including BBC One, BBC Two, ITV, Channel 4, and Channel 5.
