About Ryan

How Ryan's work is checked

IPTV Free Trial sells the IPTV service these guides describe, so they are not independent journalism, and comparisons on this site should be read with that in mind. To keep the facts honest, prices come from a single configuration file shared by every page, site-wide claims are checked automatically before each deploy, and every article shows the date it was last updated.

More on who runs the site is on the About page.
