A quick search, seems to indicate a lot of people are having problems with them all over with being unable to stream, and I believe those are illegal copyright infringing streams. So possibly the feds shut them down and/or are being blocked by ISPs. And given what it is, a Kodi box from China, that's probably the reason why. I think most of them ship out from Hong Kong or mainland.

It's something like this isn't it?

FYI: If you're in the UK.
