Make sure you can find the origin of the broadcast using your favourite search engine or by following the domain of broadcast. If you used to see the channel under paywalls or subscription offers, it may likely be a copyright infringement. If you see a service with a probe period and available plans or you have found an unrecognizable link in someone else's playlist, it's likely to expire soon. Streams or services that have publicly available videoplayers are likely to perform publicly-intended broadcasts. Odds are your link will still be session protected and will only be available to you.
