so i went to their website. For a site thats immediate branding is about how scary and dangerous hackers are, you'd think their news section would be full of fraud and ransomware stories. instead, their "latest news" is solely articles about people being arrested for using pirate streaming services or selling loaded firesticks.
The single exception to this is a "social experiment" they allegedly did where they put a QR code up at the tube marked as "free streaming for life" and had people put pii in to sign up. This entire "initative" is solely another way to harvest user data lmao.
What circumstances does that even happen in? Like a bar that plays a pirated sports stream?
Theres firestick apps that stream all the regular channels, plus all the premium channels. (HBO, showtime, stars, ppv, etc) Essentially for $10 - $20 a month you get the best, most decked out cable package one could buy. You may or may not have access to all the new and old movies, TV shows (from all the platforms), and porn, on demand, as well. Maybe like that?
That doesn't sound like something you get arrested for though
