Steaming is kind of weird. The person providing the stream is obviously on the wrong side of the law. But the person watching said stream isn't really doing anything that is technically illegal.
As I said in my first response, nothing is being "stolen" by streaming a free broadcast; regardless how hard the OP tries to make it appear so. Sometimes, you just have to recognize who you are dealing with and just disengage.
Now if a person streams premium content or rebroadcasting for profit; then you can consider that person to be stealing.
