The answer to your question is as follows:

It is a kind of gambling (game of chance) which is strictly prohibited in Islam. Gambling refers to the betting or staking of something of value, with consciousness of risk and hope of gain, on the outcome of a game, or a contest. In the case you mentioned above a team may acquire money more than they deposited and another team may lose what they deposited and it is called gambling in Islam. And it is a grave sin.

يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا إِنَّمَا الْخَمْرُ وَالْمَيْسِرُ وَالْأَنْصابُ وَالْأَزْلامُ رِجْسٌ مِنْ عَمَلِ الشَّيْطانِ فَاجْتَنِبُوهُ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ (سورہ مائدۃ 90)

والحاصل أن العدالة إنما تسقط بالشطرنج إذا وجد واحد من خمسة: القمار وفوت الصلاة بسببه وإكثار الحلف عليه واللعب به على الطريق كما في فتح القدير،(شامی 5/483) لأن القمار من القمر الذي يزداد تارة وينقص أخرى، وسمي القمار قمارا لأن كل واحد من المقامرين ممن يجوز أن يذهب ماله إلى صاحبه، ويجوز أن يستفيد مال صاحبه وهو حرام بالنص، ولا كذلك إذا شرط من جانب واحد لأن الزيادة والنقصان لا تمكن فيهما بل في أحدهما تمكن الزيادة، وفي الآخر الانتقاص فقط فلا تكون مقامرة لأنها مفاعلة منه زيلعي (شامی 6/403)۔

The answer to your question is as follows:

The games, which are helpful in physical well being and do not involve something that is Haram, are permissible, such as swimming, shooting, horse-riding. The games that are meant only for wasting time are demoted in Islam. And the games which include something haram or known as the games of disbelievers and criminals are forbidden in Shariah. In Fatawa   of Mufti Mahmood sb it is mentioned that playing tash or ludu is very bad and if it is played with betting between the players then it is gambling which is Haram. It is duty of a muslim to refrain from Haram objects. The holy Quran says: and who keep themselves away from vain things (Surah Muminoon 23/3). (An abstract from Fatawa Mufti Mahmood Vol. 11 page No. 259)

The answer to your question is as follows:

It is unlawful to use anything that belongs to others. If you have used your neighbor’s WiFi in the past without his permission, you have a duty to inform him. If you try to compensate him for using his WiFi connection it would be better.

We also advise you to keep your device’s WiFi switched off so that it will not get connected automatically. You must know that using anything belonging to others is Haram and unlawful as mentioned in a Hadith. So you must take full caution when dealing with others.

The answer to your question is as follows:

For justice to be delivered it is not that only video is necessary, before arrival of video justice has been much more, and every case is not to be dragged to the court. Therefore, in usual circumstances video etc. are not allowed.

Yes, in case there is no other way to (attain) justice, and it is most probable that in such a situation (using video) justice can be attained while in other conditions (when not using video) considerable harms are feared, then there may be scope for video.

However, if there is any compulsion it is better to describe it and ask the question again. And Allah knows best
