As long as they are within 20-30 houses then the chances of getting caught are quite low so a good way to share a subscription with your neighbours

Further affield than that then you start to see the boxes appear on different physical UBR lines which is proof they aren't at the same address.

Further affield still and your on different UBR's - an even bigger tipoff that the boxes are at different addresses.
