The operator of a platform responsible for supplying illegal streams to pirate services around the world, has been sentenced to 11 months in prison and to pay more than US$90,000 in penalties.

A 41-year-old man has been given a two-year suspended sentence after pleading guilty to charges of promoting and selling unlicensed access to premium movies and sport.

FACT scores another success in the fight against illegal content distribution: a man who sold streaming sticks capable of receiving pirated Premier League matches has been jailed for two and a half years.

The latest example from Britain, but also other examples from Europe, show that piracy can be effectively detected but also condemned.
